Fish Out Of Water (Lyrics)

I think it's time for some changes
I think I wanna break away
I could use some rearrangements
I think I'm gonna leave today

'Cause things don't seem
the way they used to
And everyone has gone insane
And I can't act the way I'm supposed to
So put me on the nearest plane

I'm like a fish out of water
I feel out of place
In a land of disorder
A man losing faith

Well it really makes me wonder
Can't a good man get a break
'Cause when they're pulling you asunder
There's only so much you can take

What the hell is going on here
Where is dignity and grace
Why are we consumed by fear
When did cruelty win the race

I'm like a fish out of water
I feel out of place
In a land of disorder
A man losing faith

'Cause there are people killing people killing people in heaven's name
And hitler youth are being trained
to sell their souls for the crusade
While governments are washing brains and strip our rights like we're to blame
And media just fan the flames
and claim their right to be profane

I'm a fish out of water
I feel out of place
Like a lamb to the slaughter
That it don't want to face

So I'm packing my suitcase
'Cause I'm yearning to try
To make a better life someplace
If I don't I'll just die

Fish out of water
I feel out of place
In a land of disorder
A man losing faith

I think it's time for some changes
I think I'm gonna leave today

Feel out of place? You may have New World DisOrder.
