Anti-Flag - All of the Poison, All of the Pain

Away, away, I can't get away
From all of the poison, from all of the pain
Away, away, I can't get away
From ourselves we shut off
From ourselves we can't escape

The world is never quiet
Even silence makes a sound
A pin-prick, a blank strike
What was proud is still as proud
Watch it unfold on LCD screen sets
So we really, never
Ever have to deal with it

Each pixel is a story of
What there was before
Each cathode ray disguises just
What we're looking for

From the great north to a working man's hand
There's a story in the desert
Below the cobblestones the sand
Our indulgence is just one step away
Lust has no end when there's no end
And no one awake to say

Are we afraid of you?
Are we the same as you?

Each pixel is a story of
What there was before
Each wire tapped for water
To homogenize the poor
Each commercial will remind us that
Things couldn't get much worse
