Brand new century

At the end of nineteen ninety-nine In the cold light of the day Had a vision that the world was mine What this means I could not say And the night would fall and I'd be running to the window Hoping that the dawn would bring another day of shadows Everybody wants the chance to be a warrior In the twenty-first century Everybody has the need to be criminal In the brand new century Only virgins can be innocent in a world where love is dead Where the righteous will be crucified if they dare to show their heads Only time will tell if there's a reason for this madness Up to now this world has had its share of pain and sadness Everybody wants the chance to be a warrior In the twenty-first century Everybody has the need to be criminal In the brand new century Circumstances give me time to pray for the clearing of the way And the chance that we will all be here, to live to fight another day But before I know it all the argument has ended People on the street are leaving homes that they'd defended Everybody wants the chance to be a warrior In the twenty-first century Everybody has the need to be criminal In the brand new century
