No, I won't be silenced, I won't give in
No, to the pressure of what's hip
No, this simple lesson must be learned
No, won't candy coat it, must be heard

[Chorus]
Burry your head, hoping it all goes away
living state of apathy
don't want to know
don't want to hear what goes on
can't ignore there's something wrong

No, don't have time for fantasies
No, can't escape reality
No, won't shut my eyes, won't look away
No, from the truth and the pain

[Chorus]

you close your eyes, try to deny
you look away to shut it all out

We'll defy, the candy coated lies
can't accept, pretending it's fine
can't survive, with blinders on our eyes
seek the truth, reach the sublime
we'll defy, the candy coated lies
can't accept, pretending it's fine
open up your eyes
it's too late

See what's goin' on and recognize it's too late
time is running out, it's running out
it's too late
take a stand and see what it's about
it's too late
