Uncomfortable in your disguise
And looking over your back with Janus' eyes
Cos' you're living in a world that you don't recognise
The changing of the status quo
Is the biggest chapter in your tale of woe
The encroaching future left you no place to go
Yet you choose to fight on the losing side of history
It's a mystery to me
Why you can't decide on a compromise to your beliefs
This is a fight that won't bring you victory
Your unsustainable point of view
Will all too soon disappear into the void
Your repudiation of the truth
Will guarantee that you will all be left behind
Yet you choose to fight on the losing side of history
It's a mystery to me
Why you can't decide on a compromise to your beliefs
This is a fight that won't bring you victory
The future becomes the present
The present becomes the past
Your rose-tinted views of tradition
Were never built to last
Your only hope is to adapt
Or to face extinction
In your constitution you lack
The capability for evolution
So you choose to fight on the losing side of history
It's a mystery to me
Why you can't decide on a compromise to your beliefs
This is a fight that won't bring you victory
Still you choose to fight on the losing side of history
It's a mystery to me
Why you can't decide on a compromise to your beliefs
This is a fight that won't bring you victory
