If We're To Be Damned Lyrics

It's hard to understand the way others seem to think

When the world's on fire, some people want to pour gas

Maybe it's just the destructive nature of our souls

Maybe there's a part of us that needs to seek the past

All I know is that we seem to stand upon the brink

And maybe it's time that human beings have to pass

All of us are complicit, for we have played our roles

I guess it's a fact of life that nothing ever lasts

If we're to be damned

Let's be damned for what we are

Live on in the face of hate

Let us take a stand

After all, we've gone this far

Even if it is too late

Well, I can understand why this outlook seems pointless

When we're all so tired and our leaders act so cruel

It seems the point is destruction - how do you fight that

What do you expect when fools elect greater fools

Maybe it's inevitable - entropy, I guess

When all that stands in its way is just a golden rule

If you want the kids to live, they must be babysat

But too many want a babysitter that just drools

If we're to be damned

Let's be damned for what we are

Live on in the face of hate

Let us take a stand

After all, we've gone this far

Even if it is too late

Even when you know you'll lose

Don't give into your despair

Even in a long defeat

Do not forget how to care

If we're to be damned

Let's be damned for what we are

Live on in the face of hate

Let us take a stand

After all, we've gone this far

Even if it is too late

If we're to be damned

Let's be damned for what we are

Live on in the face of hate

Let us take a stand

After all, we've gone this far

Even if it is too late
