Decisions, they're not worth deciding
Is whats hidden really hiding
At the top of the secret
Or in the bottom of the truth
Where in this game, they take our youth
Follow me up the hill onto my neighbors farm
See the open fields of Ohio
While you're sitting in a classroom
You're not learning a thing
You could be running through the meadow
and hearing birds sing
I always thought this was a free world
Funny how perspectives change so fast
Its getting in my ears and eyes
Looking left and speaking right,
You can move in the order
I can't remember what you said,
Your acceptance speech was read
Preach it to the choir
In the neighbors neighborhood its all understood
No reason to hide; we're all side by side
Trash in the bleachers coffee stains on the teachers
You shine for no one, like a candle in the sun
We can talk about it later, We could speak about it now
There's some oil in the ocean and it's spilling right out, now
Is whats hidden really hiding
At the top of the secret
Or in the bottom of the truth
Where in this game, they take our youth
Follow me up the hill onto my neighbors farm
See the open fields of Ohio
While you're sitting in a classroom
You're not learning a thing
You could be running through the meadow
and hearing birds sing
I always thought this was a free world
Funny how perspectives change so fast
Its getting in my ears and eyes
Looking left and speaking right,
You can move in the order
I can't remember what you said,
Your acceptance speech was read
Preach it to the choir
In the neighbors neighborhood its all understood
No reason to hide; we're all side by side
Trash in the bleachers coffee stains on the teachers
