Story Behind the Song
Direction was the band's second song they wrote, and stays with them over a year later. The song is about the decline of morals most Americans represent.
Lyrics
DIRECTION
Wake up, this is America
land of the free, home of the brave
stand out, and you'll be persecuted
tortured for your faith
The world is in a downward spiral
and all the people here are in denial
you think we have a perfect society
but what we really need is Christianity
Open your eyes
can't you see?
we're heading for destruction
and it's so plain to see
when you turn on the tv
we're lost and in the wrong direction!
What makes you think that you can kill a human being?
is it your right, like you have a choice?
topless girls on a kid's computer screen
what does it mean? what does it mean?
Jesus, shower us with your love, and your mercy
we never thought we'd turn out this way
we're wrong, we're wrong, so wrong
