What Are We Standing For - Bad Religion

Lyrics by：Greg Graffin/Brett Gurewitz

Composed by：Greg Graffin/Brett Gurewitz

An adventure in secular morality

Shouldn't be an insurrection to us all

And the counterfeit political currency

Shouldn't stand there as a patriotic call

Oh the victory oh and hyperbole

Justifies to vacant humanity

And the babble that is drowning out the door

Don't what they're standing for anymore

Find some understanding for

Those who kneel to implore

Know just what they're standing for

What's the lasting legacy

Of the humanistic progress that we made

All the blood that's spilled for someone else

Is profit but will never be repaid

There's the useless hope of the afterlife

But it can't dissuade all the toilets drive

And the pious who are planning so much more

Don't what they're standing for anymore

Show some understanding for

Those who can't hope for more

Know just what they're standing for

Oh-oh-oh find some understanding for

Those who kneel to implore

Know just what they're standing for

There's a sound in the attic

Of memories erratic

A firm resolution

For an eternal constitution

The bravery of self-defense

Against the pull of ignorance

And shudder to adore

Those that don't know what they're standing for

Find some understanding for

Those who can't hope for more

Know just what they're standing for

Oh-oh-oh be someone who's standing for

Take a knee on the floor

Know just what you're standing for
