I saw my revolution sold to a priest
|
I saw the men of reason bow down to the east
|
|
And oh, it's better to know
|
Oh, it's better to know.
|
|
The truth can make you bitter
|
Even while it sets you free
|
The truth's a hauting daunting mistress
|
She ain't been good to me
|
|
And oh, it's better to know
|
Oh, it's better to know.
|
|
Despite all the fools and liars
|
Despite all of the wars
|
The pursuit of liberty is
|
Still a noble cause
|
|
And oh, it's better to know
|
Oh, I swear it's better to know.
|
|
All the forces of distortion
|
All the pretty words you said
|
The elephant in your living room
|
The fascist in your bed
|
|
And oh, it's better to know
|
Oh, I swear it's better to know.
|
Even though we're so alone
|
For so long
|
We've been so alone
|
For so long
|
