5000 the Band - Shell Shocked Lyrics

Shell shocked and embarrassed
It was election day
The future it scared us
We all had our hopes
Crushed and faded
Under scrutiny
Answers were jaded

You believe what you want to believe
You don't see what you don't want to see
Oh yeah

I flew into the bay
It was cold and raining
Protests filled up the streets
People were raging
I got out of the BART
I could sense the sadness
It seemed to match my mood
I had just escaped madness

You believe what you want to believe
You don't see what you don't want to see
Oh yeah

You believe what you want to believe
You don't see what you don't want to see
Oh yeah

You believe what you want to believe
You don't see what you don't want to see
Oh yeah

You believe what you want to believe
You don't see what you don't want to see
Oh yeah
