Age of Ignorance Lyrics by Our Last Night

Age of Ignorance (Deluxe Edition)

2012

[Verse 1]
They murdered their own to start an endless war
Sat back and relaxed as the buildings burned
This is the age of ignorance
It is a sickness that brings us to the end
They poison our food to keep their margins high
And as they count their money, the starving die
This is the age of ignorance
It is a sickness that brings us to the end
[Chorus]
It's time to stand up, get ready to fight
For all the wrongs that should be right
Or watch the world as it slowly falls apart
As it slowly falls apart
[Verse 2]
They could cure this cancer in the simplest ways
But the longer we're sick, the more the doctor gets paid
The longer we wait to get out of these days
The shorter we'll live and the faster we'll decay
This is the age of ignorance
It is a sickness that brings us to the end
[Chorus]
It's time to stand up, get ready to fight
For all the wrongs that should be right
Or watch the world as it slowly falls apart
As it slowly falls apart
[Bridge]
If the people lead
The leaders will follow
The teachers will be the ones
That never played this game
This is the age of ignorance
It is a sickness that brings us to the end
[Chorus]
It's time to stand up, get ready to fight
For all the wrongs that should be right
Or watch the world as it slowly falls apart
We'll stand up for what we believe in
And won't back down 'til they see the reason
To change the world before it slowly falls apart
