Army Of A Nation lyrics

Verse 1:

Here there is no future, here there is no time

Here you're moving backwards with your fingers on rewind

A place where there is money, a place where there is greed

To bring us all together as a happy family

Maybe that's the answer, maybe we're machines

Maybe we were meant to live out other people’s dreams

But I don't think that I am ready to live out my own life

And I don't think I know the balance

Between what is wrong and right

Chorus:

And here we are, this ordinary life

We've come this far, but nothing turned out right

We stand, and we march, we all walk the same line

We are the army of a nation, the army of a nation, yeah

Americana's vacation, we are the army of a nation

Verse 2:

How can you see the difference when everyone's the same?

And everything you know is just the price you choose to pay

And if you wanna go there, I hope you wanna stay

'Cause once they let you in you find that there is no escape

I think I see the difference; that everyone's the same

The only alteration, only with another name

But I don't think that I'm ready to live out my own life

But I don't think I know the balance

Between what is wrong and right

Chorus:

And here we are, this ordinary life

We've come this far, but nothing turned out right

We stand, and we march, we all walk the same line

We are the army of a nation, the army of a nation, yeah

Americana's vacation, we are the army of a nation

Bridge:

This ordinary life, this ordinary life, this ordinary life

This ordinary life

This ordinary life, this ordinary life, this ordinary life

Chorus:

And here we are, this ordinary life

We've come this far, but nothing turned out right

We stand, and we march, we all walk the same line

We are the army of a nation
