A Liberal Education
Take away our history
Take away our heroes
Take away our values
And leave us here with nothing
We were in the garden of Eden
Just as children mess around
We only leant against the tree
And the apple came tumbling down
You gave us what we asked for
But never what we wanted
We were only children
How could you have been so stupid
We went up to the steel walls
That guard the sacred town
We only whispered to ourselves
And the walls came tumbling down
We didn't want a victory
We just wanted to fight
But you wouldn't fight
You just gave in
You went and spoiled every game
You broke an everlasting chain
And nobody respects you for your weakness
Take away our idols
Take away our faith
Take away our hatred
And put us in this vacuum
Then say be yourself, please yourself
Express yourself some more
It's your right
To do what you like
'Cos we can't really be bothered with you at all
We didn't want a victory
We just wanted to fight
But you wouldn't fight
You said it isn't nice to fight
You went and spoiled every game
You broke an everlasting chain
And nobody respects you for your weakness
Una Educación Liberal
Quita nuestra historia
Quita nuestros héroes
Quita nuestros valores
Y déjanos aquí sin nada
Estábamos en el jardín del Edén
Como niños jugando
Solo nos apoyamos en el árbol
Y la manzana cayó rodando
Nos diste lo que pedimos
Pero nunca lo que queríamos
Solo éramos niños
¿Cómo pudiste ser tan estúpido?
Fuimos hacia los muros de acero
Que protegen la ciudad sagrada
Solo susurrábamos para nosotros mismos
Y los muros se vinieron abajo
No queríamos una victoria
Solo queríamos luchar
Pero tú no luchaste
Simplemente cediste
Arruinaste cada juego
Rompiendo una cadena eterna
Y nadie te respeta por tu debilidad
Quita nuestros ídolos
Quita nuestra fe
Quita nuestro odio
Y déjanos en este vacío
Luego dices sé tú mismo, complace a ti mismo
Exprésate un poco más
Es tu derecho
Hacer lo que quieras
Porque realmente no nos importa en absoluto
No queríamos una victoria
Solo queríamos luchar
Pero tú no luchaste
Dijiste que no es bueno pelear
Arruinaste cada juego
Rompiendo una cadena eterna
Y nadie te respeta por tu debilidad
