Sometimes I feel that we've been herded like sheep
We've been led out like lambs to the slaughter
And empty souls, kept the downtrodden down
And took the best and left us the fodder

Still in my heart I feel such purpose
A reason for being alive

And I wanna know
Well, I want to know

Sometimes it seems, there was meant to be more
Than this rush and this battle to living
And there's the times, we've all tasted the space
That you know when we feel that we're giving

So take some time to think about this
I'm blinded now, I'd like to see

And I wanna to know
Well, I wanna know

I wanna see through all the barriers
Were created before I was born
Were they put out there just to guide me
Or keep the weak from becoming strong

Yeah, I wanna know
Well, I wanna know

Still in my heart I feel such purpose
A reason for being alive

And I wanna to know
I wanna to know

Sometimes I fear that all men are asleep
Must we shout to awake those that slumber?

I wanna know
I wanna to know
'Cause I wanna to know
