The song describes a world in chaos and confusion, with too many problems and not enough love. It laments the loss of heroes and leadership as men of power lose control. The lyrics call for people to use what power they have to try and make the world a better place worth living in.

1. "Land Of Confusion" In the wake of this madness, as I held
Disturbed you tight
So long ago
[Originally by Genesis]
I won't be coming home tonight
I must have dreamed a thousand dreams My generation will put it right
Been haunted by a million screams We're not just making promises
But I can hear the marching feet That we know we'll never keep
They're moving into the street
There's too many men, too many people
Now, did you read the news today? Making too many problems
They say the danger has gone away And there's not much love to go round
But I can see the fire's still alight Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
They're burning into the night
Now, this is the world we live in
There's too many men, too many people And these are the hands we're given
Making too many problems Use them and let's start trying
And there's not much love to go around To make it a place worth fighting for
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
This is the world we live in
This is the world we live in And these are the names we're given
And these are the hands we're given Stand up and let's start showing
Use them and let's start trying Just where our lives are going to
To make it a place worth living in
Oh, superman, where are you now?
When everything's gone wrong some-
how?
The men of steel, these men of power
Are losing control by the hour
This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is a land of confusion
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in
I remember long ago
When the sun was shining
And all the stars were bright all through
the night
