An adventure in secular morality
Shouldn´t be an insurrection to us all
And the counterfeit political currency
Shouldn´t stand there as a patriotic call

Oh, the victory, oh, and hyperbole
Justifies to vacant humanity
And the babble that is drowning out the door

Don´t what they´re standing for anymore
Find some understanding for
Those who kneel to implore
Know just what they´re standing for

What´s the lasting legacy
Of the humanistic progress that we made?
All the blood that´s spilled for someone else
Is profit but will never be be repaid

There´s the useless hope of the afterlife
But it can´t dissuade all the toilets drive
And the pious who are planning so much more

Don´t what they´re standing for anymore
Show some understanding for
Those who can´t hope for more
Know just what they´re standing for
Oh-oh-oh, find some understanding for
Those who kneel to implore
Know just what they´re standing for

There´s a sound in the attic
Of memories erratic
A firm resolution
For an eternal constitution
The bravery of self-defense
Against the pull of ignorance
And shudder to adore

Those that don´t know what they´re standing for
Find some understanding for

Those who can´t hope for more
Know just what they´re standing for
Oh-oh-oh, be someone who´s standing for
Take a knee on the floor
Know just what you´re standing for
