Affliction Lyrics by Pennywise

Reason to Believe

2008

Take a listen to what I say
I got the truth and I'll help you find your way
It's time to take what you know is already yours

It's your life, it's your right
You wake up every moment feeling numb until you die
Take a chance and walk right through that unopened door

The affliction
That's the curse for the modern man
If you believe then you can't be wrong
Reject all the opposing opinions
And carry on

The affliction
That's the curse for the modern man
With blind faith you're never wrong
Reject all the opposing opinions
You can't go wrong

So make your pledges and place the blame
They got opinions and you hear them everyday
We got the facts to back them up you just can't ignore

You gotta fight for what's right
No matter if the truth just can't be seen in black and white
But don't think that's gonna stop 'em marching to war

The affliction
That's the curse for the modern man
If you believe then you can't be wrong
Reject all the opposing opinions
And carry on

The affliction
That's the curse for the modern man
With blind faith you're never wrong
Reject all the opposing opinions
You can't go wrong

The affliction
That's the curse for the modern man
If you believe then you can't be wrong
Reject all the opposing opinions
And carry on

The affliction
That's the curse for the modern man
With blind faith you're never wrong
Reject all the opposing opinions
You can't go wrong
