lyrics

Say nothing by saying everything
We all have so much to bring
Do nothing by leaving it all alone
We all have so much to show

And I know what I believe
Take it back from me

A little more each day
In the same old way now
I don't think so
I don't think so

Live life like it's your only one
Each moment like a song unsung
Think nothing while proving everything
We all have too much to say

And I know what I believe
Take it back from me

A little more each day
In the same old way now
I don't think so
I don't think so

Take it back from me
Your head buried in the sand
All I can see
Well that's just my philosophy
Well that's just my philosophy

You take it back from me
Your head buried in the sand
All I can see
Well that's just my philosophy
Well that's just my philosophy

You take it back from me
Your head buried in the sand
All I can see

Well that's just my philosophy

Sample:
"There's a time, when the operation of the machine becomes so odious
Makes you so sick at heart,
That you can't take part,
You can't even passively take part
And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels,
Upon the levers, upon all the apparatus,
And you've got to make it stop,
and you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it,
That unless you're free,
The machine will be prevented from working at all"
