Fabled World Lyrics

by Anti-flag

We live in a fabled world
Of dreaming boys and wide-eyed girls;
Where precious few get a fair start
These times can break you
These times can leave you
Torn apart

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e128299-anti-flag~fabled_world_lyrics.html ]
The story starts with genocide
Slavery, those terrorized;
Families, cultures torn apart
This ugly truth only the start

And it's a white washed pact
The founding act
Revolution or contract?
To subjugate, to torture, to abuse
For the few

We live in a fabled world
Of terror, day and night
All hidden in plain sight;
We live in a fabled world
Where the poor and the weak
Are pawns for profit's sake

Lock up mass incarcerate
The new Jim Crow, the new slave trade;
If Doctor King were here today
He'd fight for much more than a dream

And you should go sign up
Join the fight
The rich sleep while you kill tonight;
Love thy enemy as thyself
As you carpet bomb him to hell

We live in a fabled world
Of terror, day and night
All hidden in plain sight;
We live in a fabled world
Where the poor and the weak
Are pawns for profit's sake

We live in a fabled world
A corprocratic killing field;
Where fascist profits are a lock
These times can break you
These times can leave you
Torn apart

We live in a fabled world
Of terror, day and night
All hidden in plain sight;
We live in a fabled world
Where the poor and the weak
Are pawns for profit's sake

We live in a fabled world
We live in a fabled world
These times can break you
These times can leave you
Torn apart
