There's a reason why we're here
And I think you'll understand
Maybe I don't want to kneel, no
Maybe I should bite that hand

Don't hang your hopes on heroes or superstars
Don't dangle from their strings, like a puppet behind bars
 
And why believe in their gods?
And why believe in their lies?
And why believe in the people I've been told to trust?
Why believe at all?
Why believe at all?

Sometimes life seems pretty clear
When you listen to their plan
But when screaming draws you near
Remember why you're where you stand
 
Don't listen to fools who sell you their empty hearts
Don't wander back to them, into their open arms

And why believe in their gods?
And why believe in their lies?

And why believe in the people I've been told to trust?
Why believe at all?
Why believe at all?

Don't hang your hopes on heroes or superstars
Don't wander back to them, into their open arms

And why believe in their gods?
And why believe in their lies?

And why believe in the people I've been told to trust?
Why believe at all?
Why believe at all?
