The World and More

It's almost time
To celebrate a new peace of mind
You've decimated everything you know
It goes to show

That no one is held accountable
And they all may seem infallible
But you just can't believe
Everything they tell you

They strip you of everything and leave a goodbye
That is sold with your life
And what they take is part of you, that cannot be denied
But don't let them take your pride

Lifetimes ago the world was waiting
For someone else, anticipating
They would come to save
Rock & roll

They'll promise you the world and more
And you'll be the one they adore
Screaming out your name
As you take the stage

But they'll strip you of everything and leave a goodbye
That is sold with your life
And what they take is part of you, that cannot be denied
But don't let them take your pride
'Cause they'll take your pride
