Oh baby it's late in the century I'm here for visions, but I just can't see So many on the joystick and crying out in pain We're crossing all the barriers And flying with no brains The saints now have no haloes I can't recognize their walk They're talking now in street jive And gods they just won't talk The children can't make sentances Fractured pictures feelings numb They wanna suck their present dry Cause the future will never come
We all fight in our own little secret wars Don't care about equality just give me more and more We barely have the strength of will to make it through the day Just chalk it up against my soul And I'll refuse to pay Starlight, starbrite If I had some now wishes Well I'd wish them all tonight Rattle all those swords and guns What bullshit slogan will be sung Rage against the darkness man But the stars are going out
Rock and whirl We're dancing a quicksand dance When the white sky flares Well you won't stand a chance So grab a partner for now Rock and whirl, rock and whirl
Dear diary it's been another day Kept the spirit burning for now Kept the blues at bay Made my lover laugh and cry For me she did the same It's all in how you say it Not in what you say
Oh, fight the things that shatter Find something to believe in Big or small, it doesn't matter Follow the sound of your different drum The beat is always from your heart And it's always glad you've come
