There's a world out there Waiting for you And everybody in it Got a different point of view And you can play the fool And you can play the prophet And you are free to fill Your empty pockets With stones to throw down your dry wishing well There's always something to prove Or somebody's got something to tell But a whole lot of good it will do Oh beyond the veil Politicians spread your lies Let the media spread the news Water it all down From the pulpits to the pews You make me choose a better way to lose And the ones that look for some truth Or the ones in their dark jail cells Are the ones just like me and you Oh but beyond the veil Where the secrets kept from the darkened depths That the crown can afford to abuse Leaves nothing behind but a thinly drawn line That we walk in these worn out shoes In a world that can't think for itself Look beyond the veil
