An adventure in secular morality
Shouldn't be an insurrection to us all
And the counterfeit political currency
Shouldn't stand there as a patriotic call
Oh, the victory, oh, and hyperbole
Justifies to vacant humanity
And the babble that is drowning out the door
Don't what they're standing for anymore
Find some understanding for
Those who kneel to implore
Know just what they're standing for
What's the lasting legacy
Of the humanistic progress that we made?
All the blood that's spilled for someone else
Is profit but will never be be repaid
There's the useless hope of the afterlife
But it can't dissuade all the toilets drive
And the pious who are planning so much more
Don't what they're standing for anymore
Show some understanding for
Those who can't hope for more
Know just what they're standing for
Oh-oh-oh, find some understanding for
Those who kneel to implore
Know just what they're standing for
There's a sound in the attic
Of memories erratic
A firm resolution
For an eternal constitution
The bravery of self-defense
Against the pull of ignorance
And shudder to adore
Those that don't know what they're standing for
Find some understanding for
Those who can't hope for more
Know just what they're standing for
Oh-oh-oh, be someone who's standing for
Take a knee on the floor
Know just what you're standing for
