The North Country - My Understanding Lyrics

My understanding of the world as it is
Is of the world as I hope it can be
How strange it is to be anything at all
How embarrassing to be human being
The tragedy of crossing lines
We draw and called divine
Imagination aplenty
But will is lacking when you're
Twenty two
I want to tear apart my membership card
To the American Distraction Regime
I don't believe in things like evil or good
Only the wandering around in between
I wasn't made for these times
I'm guilty of the crime
Of conscious self-edit
Insufficient line of credit
Holes in the knees of my jeans
My understanding of the world as it is
Is of the world as I hope it can be
