What do you believe
How did you conceive
Did they come from within
Or were they programmed in

Everyone has forgotten to question why
Kept so busy they are scared of their own minds
Everyone has forgotten to watch the skies
They don't want to look in case they realise
That the things they learned in books at school were lies
That they have been taken for fools for their whole lives

I can't ignore the things I see

The evidence is all around you
But you don't see as your programmed to
The evidence is all around you
But you don't see as your programmed to
The evidence is all around you
But you don't see as your programmed to
The evidence is all around you
But you don't see as your programmed to

As you stumble through your life
Do you ever think more than twice
About what you're doing here
About where you are, what you are
As you stumble through your life
Do you ever think more than twice
About what you're doing here
About where you are, what you are
As you stumble through your life
Do you ever think more than twice
About what you're doing here
About where you are, what you are
As you stumble through your life
Do you ever think more than twice
About what you're doing here
About where you are, what you are

You can't hide the sun or the moon or the truth
You know you can't hide the sun or the moon or the truth
You know you can't hide the sun or the moon or the truth
You know you can't hide the sun or the moon or the truth

You can't hide the sun
You can't hide the sun
You can't hide the sun
You can't hide the sun
