Why? -

Blindfolds and cigarettes

Black hoods and camcorders televise homicide

Soldiers in shallow graves

Martyrs and thought police waiting to take you away

Why don’t you let it lay

Won’t you walk away

Let it end today

Why don’t you let it go

Land of democracy

Land of hypocrisy

Forced down our throats, the indescents of pleasure

While violence and war deemed appropriate measures

Land of morality

Hand of brutality

Kill on command over corporate profit

Don’t let them send you away

Why don’t you let it lay

Won’t you walk away

Let it end today

Why don’t you let it go

And we have such a long way to go

But we’ve taken the wrong way to go

There’s one thing i want you to know

There is something they don’t want to show

Why don’t you let it lay

Won’t you walk away

Let it end today

Why don’t you let it go
