Things aren't doing so well
In the Land of the Free
Things appear to be getting worse
From sea to Shining Sea
Now I don't have faith in many things
I'm not sure about humanity
But if we want change there's one thing I'll believe in
That's you and me
I don't have faith in government
It just hasn't got much done
And I don't have faith in all these laws
They just aren't very much fun
I don't have faith in wars
They've done no good that I can see
And I've no faith in religions
They still haven't set us free
I don't have much that much faith in you
And not too much in me
Together, however, we can do whatever
And we can accomplish anything
So when you see me open my arms
It's not just a heartless deed
Our embrace signifies my heartfelt claim
That I'll try to help you in time of need
Together as friends we can change the world
And face whatever battle ensues
We both know I won't shoot you and you won't shoot me
(So at least we've got that going for us)
