Chained Lizard - Take Me for a Ride Lyrics

You know I'd rather be punched with the truth than kissed with a lie
Ignorance is bliss, we make no change and then we ask why
Stranded on the street, voiceless in need
Jealousy, fear, anger, money, greed
Bleed the same but we're miles apart
When did the power eat away at your heart
Say that you'll take me away from reality
For a ride, we can hide, are we blind
Someone save me
We all have a mind, heart and eyes
So why do we determine who lives and what dies
Telephone whispers, what's going on
No questioning the lies, assume they can't be wrong
We're moving forward they say but the earth moves round
Hate for colour, love, belief, stolen ground
3, 2, 1 lift off, we'll see the stars
Moving away, we'll find life on Mars
Say that you'll take me away from reality
For a ride, we can hide, are we blind
Someone save me
Baby's parents murdered at war, baby made soldier at age four
Finding home but shook to their core, what is it we're all fighting for
Who should we love, in what way and how much
Pick and choose words we trust, it's enough, it's enough
Wanna go far, wanna, wanna go far
Wanna go far, wanna
Wanna go far and fast for long, miles away and we can sing this song
Say that you'll take me away from reality
For a ride, we can hide, are we blind
Someone save me
Say that you'll take me away from reality
For a ride, we can hide, open your eyes
Who should we love, in what way and how much
Pick and choose what we trust, it's enough, it's enough
You know I'd rather be punched with the truth than kissed with a lie
