lyrics

Say a prayer for the soul of a fractured nation
A house divided, split by liars and manipulation
A blank republic in the service of the corporation
Left high and dry by the legislated exploitation

I can't see a reconciliation
I just see a destination revolution

The cable news has the scoop on the new sensation
The talking heads offer smiles up of pure elation
Does it occur to them the price to pay for their creation
The fourth pillar's gotten rotten down to its foundation

I can't see through the misinformation
Just see a destination revolution

Our cities rust into a third world desolation
Can't drink the water on account of the contamination
It's blood for oil on the soil of the reservation
Paid thugs shoot slugs into the demonstration

It's the cost of profit motivation
I just see a destination revolution
