Open the Dam

Attention all you naive souls
 Chasing jaded dreams
 Take a closer look at your world
 It ain't what it seems
 Nothing more and nothing less
 Than a system of control
 So who will fight and not allow
 The capture of your soul
 Wound up? Let it go
 Wound up? Let it go
 Start us early, start us young
 Take our dreams away
 Into our minds they insert lies
 Of a false reality
 Well I don't buy it, I never will
 Didn't sign up for the plan
 Friction as I fight the flow
 At least I'm my own man
 Wound up? (Let it go)
 Wound up? (Let it go)
 (Open the dam) See water flow
 (Over the mountain) Over all you know
 (Found a new freedom) Where did it go?
 (Over the mountain) Over all you know
 Do you believe in everything
 That they ever wrote?
 And do you swallow everything
 Shoved right down your throat?
 Why do you do the things you do
 Are you thinking free & clear?
 Whose voice do you listen to
 When they whisper in you ear?
 Confidence, present tense
 Are you crippled by your fear?
 Be your own source
 Be more than just a mirror
 Wound up? (Let it go)
 Wound up? (Let it go)
 (Open the dam) See water flow
 (Over the mountain) Over all you know
 (Found a new freedom) Where did it go?
 (Over the mountain) Over all you know
