Why Won't We Change

I was born inside the Earth I was born to be free I met up with the morning She turned and left my shadow and me The sun destroyed the earth While I sat back down and let it all be How could I ignore the warning? But still I stayed back and I let it all be The books were burned the land decayed We were propelled and darkness stayed Now I miss the morning Down with we surrender Down where excuses all stay Down with we surrender We understand but why won't we change? Drinking acid out of the rain It burns my throat but it still tastes the same How could I ignore the warnings? I wish that I had learned to change The books were burned the land decayed We were propelled and darkness stayed Now I miss the morning Oh oh oh oh, oh oh ohhh! Oh oh oh oh, oh oh ohhh! Down with we surrender Down where excuses all stay Down with we surrender We understand but why won't we change? I said, the books were burned the land decayed We were propelled and darkness stayed Now I miss the morning Down with we surrender Down where excuses all stay Down with we surrender Yeah we understand but why won't we change?
