Verse 1
Looking at the world around me Its hard not to feel despair
Living like smacked up Zombies Insensitive and dont really care
Where did it go wrong? Where has compassion gone?
These questions haunt me in my sleep
In the society of broken dreams...
Chorus 1
x 4
Society of broken dreams Society of broken dreams
Verse 2
(Chord) (Rhythm)
Politicians with suits and smiles Looking dapper smarmy and flash
Claiming to represent us then they go and nick our cash
Where did it go wrong? Where has compassion gone?
These questions haunt me in my sleep
In the society of broken dreams
Chorus 2
Verse 3
We look to the young to save us but fill their heads with irrelevance
Failing to show empathy walking around in a vacant trance
Where did it go wrong? Where has compassion gone?
These questions haunt me in my sleep
In the society of broken dreams
Chorus 3
Verse 4
Maybe one day a revolution will bring around a mighty change
We will look up to artists and scholars rather than celebrities and others deranged
Until then we will live in a world that never gives
Only mankind can bring destruction
To the society of broken dreams
Chorus 4
Chorus 5
