the serenade is dead

[Verse 1] She wakes up in the morning, the sun is shining in her face Turns her head around, she shares the blanket on which the love embraced She look out of the window, it's a lovely day outside She tells herself that things are fine, he pulls the sheets to cover his eyes The essence of the fresh air, the garden held the love affair Thinking back their minds are torn in muddle and confusion [Verse 2] So far away another sits, who tries to make the best of it He don't know quite what's hit him, it's another love illusion He gazes in his empty room eyes fixed upon her picture The loneliness, dejectedness, God, how the fuck he's missed her His eyes turn to the window, the military roar by He wonders how much hatred could evolve out of the sky What God had done for peace on earth What man destroys from day of birth They are concerned with feelings, just ashamed to cry And one mans plan to push the button makes others sacrifice The serenade is dead and now the only questions why? [Verse 3] Why when we are young, we're told it's right to love Told it's human nature and that comes from God above As time moves on we realize that we all look from the pit While a plan just hangs above us, that keeps us in the shit Because the minute we are born, we're told what's right and wrong Raised with certain morals, never mentioned in their songs As we grow up we find out that the paths been neatly set In a world of such destruction,we only can regret Regret that is the words of it, as we look for our way of it Why can't they understand we don't want any part of it? The pain they create everyday, that just ain't gonna go away We've got to stick together but still you're asking why? [Bridge] The system still stands strong As our movement starts to crumble The pressure we once held Has just turned to a rumble They've got us where they want us And we all just accept that Well don't you think it's time We started to hit back? They are the enemy, they want a rope around your neck And if they will go that far, then what the fuck is next? Forget the revolution, we've heard it all before Heard of all your promises, of 1984 An impossible task, oh yes it stands before us all Well maybe you'll believe us when your backs against the Wall
