Where do you go
where do you go
for external forces
Your body wakes but never waits
to restore resources
Do you believe in what you do
or is it just for money
So if the world
all does the same
no wonder things are funny
Just when you thought
that you were building
on a rock
you find you've
dug yourself a hole
And you'll be facing
such a futuristic shock
when ground control
slips away from you
Ground control
slips away
How can you face the future
Do you create and generate
to build a land of plenty
or do you misappropriate
until the world is empty
Do you despise and criticise
with no absolution
or do you stop to analyze
to find a new solution
Just when you thought
that you were building
on a rock
you find you've
dug yourself a hole
And you'll be facing
such a futuristic shock
when ground control
slips away from you
Ground control
slips away
They're cutting up
the world we know
for reasons they're
ashamed to show
And all we love
will have to go
They're storming us
without a war
Extending force
until we fall
while we lie back
and take it all
And everything
our fathers made
And everything
they fought to save
is trampled under this parade
And nothing's going
to stop them now
Their policy
will know no bounds
as soon as they
control the ground
Under the flag of liberty
you'll find corruption lurking
It's our responsibility
to keep the system working
Just when you thought
that you were building
on a rock
you find you've
dug yourself a hole
And you'll be facing
such a futuristic shock
when ground control
slips away from you
Ground control
slips away from you
Ground control
slips away from you
Ground control
slips away
