We're The Ones Who Changed The World (1995)

we're the ones who changed the world
the ones who fabricate their air
the ones who change their rivers path
who changed the world and shut it up

it's all true, everything you've heard is here
it's all true, everything we've feared is real

we're the ones who split the atom
the ones who watched it fall
the ones who ruin all they see
we're the ones who changed the world

true it's true, say that it isn't so
but it is true it's so it's so it's true

we're the ones who reached the moon
the ones who spent their money well
the ones who shoot their bombs through
field goal posts a thousand miles away

and it is true they're not so bad
it's true they never lie

we're the ones who spilt our milk
the ones who ate their neighbors children
the ones who keep their demons down
and recoil when they bite them from below

and it is true they tried to love
and it is true they failed
all too frequently
and it is true they sang each other songs
and it is true they choked on words
much too easily

we're the ones who take whatever we are given
we're the ones who take for granted
we're the ones it's true
