Downplaying our power as individuals
While satisfying our need to feel
Like we know right from wrong
They're capitalizing on our feelings of powerlessness
Stringing us along
With their easy answers

It's really sad how some people will manipulate your emotions
At the same time demanding your devotion
You compromise until you open your eyes
And find something you don't believe in
Well, I don't need "something to believe in"
I can live with my own laws
I can make my own decisions
Without the banners of their cause
I don't need a group to guide me
I think that I can decide
The way to act on how I feel
Without rallying behind the appeal
Of their easy answers

There's no easy answers at all
