lyrics

Look upon all the world, tell me what you see

chaos that reigns supreme, perpetuates the dream

there's a word that can end it all but to speak it you must learn

requirements that must be met, for knowledge you must yearn

there's no time to live in fear for the enemy is here

apathy and IGNOREance are all that they hold dear

and I will show you all that is true, it's all that ever was and will always be

To Know the lost word and to speak the lost word

is to take this lost world and free this lost world

We have always felt alone, abandoned far too young

locked away deep inside, we strive to carry on

self loathing left unchecked begets a state of fear

people lacking self respect destroy what I revere

there's no love in their plastic world

for their eye is firmly closed

and no Care for the real work that matters the most

and I will make you see all that you do, you can't take what's wrong and make it a right

To Know the lost word and to speak the lost word

is to take this lost world and free this lost world
