Sign Of The Times

Everyone seems to have an agenda these days
But no one has an opinion of their own anymore
They read the headlines and lay claim to the truth
If only they knew the half of it, we’ll say

The words are written
The cover’s open
Read between the lines
It’s a sign of the times

You’re supposed to look both ways but you’re blind
You see what you want to and ignore the rest
Are we the only ones who see it clear in our mind?
Your false sense of security is a joke at best

The words are written
The cover’s open
Read between the lines
It’s a sign of the times

Your mind’s made up
There’ll be no swaying you
If you say the wrong words
You could end up black and blue

The words are written
The cover’s open
Read between the lines
It’s a sign of the times
