Against Me! - Once Pure lyrics

I opened my eyes to find my world
Enslaved, my brothers and
Sisters rendered mindless
With no desire to free themselves
Of their own chains
A potentially beautiful existence had
Been rendered meaningless
Set on a course to worldwide annihilation
But first the destruction and
Abandonment of everything sacred

Anything with any real meaning
Any real chance of evolution
Yet they say I'm the one who's blind
Cursed with this fucking insanity
When all this time we could have been free
In the name of Anarchy

Once pure, once clean, once natural
The water was once strong and free
Once pure, once beautiful, once healthy
The air once breathed life

The land that sustains our existence has
Been locked in shackles and chains
Then raped by the flags and the tyrants
Poisoned by the power trips of the insane

So you look around
And you pick your plot and you
Dig your own fucking grave
Or you take your stand and you wage your war
In the name of Anarchy
A simple objection is not enough
Prove your disgust
When all this time we could have been free
In the name of Anarchy
