I heard there's a place

Where men traded worlds

And the debts were paid off

With our lives

And the eyes of the innocent went blind

When the concrete mountains fell from the sky



If you let freedom ring, will they hear it

If you let freedom ring, will they care

If you let freedom ring, will they accept it

If you let freedom ring, will they dare

We're to blame

We're to... blame

When freedom rings are we deaf and dumb



With arrogance we act surprised

We police the world

And we cheat out the deprived

A deserved tragedy

That we had coming

And the price you'll pay

For your leaders lies
