Why is it such a crime
To have an open mind
Caught in the big decline
Crisis all the time
Left with this open wound
A legacy of lust
Storm clouds begin to loom
Ominous above

Why is it such a crime
To have a way of life
That's outside the dotted line
They draw for us
Beggars and millionaires
Ugly, bad and good
Daughters and sons despair
Where is Robin Hood

Empires and kingdoms die
What keeps their souls alive
Blind Allegiance, blind allegiance
Empires and kingdoms die
What keeps their souls alive
Blind Allegiance, blind allegiance

Why is it such a crime
To feel humility
Into the politics of possibility
Healing this open wound
A destiny for us
Blue skies break through the gloom
The future lies with us
