|
Children will play in the street |
|
Crying with glass in their feet |
|
Nowhere to go, nothing to do, no place to go |
|
They've sent you to an institution |
|
They've tied your hands behind your back |
|
Once you were a flying thing |
|
Now you're on the rocks with broken wings |
|
Once you were proud to be a man |
|
You carried out your own tiny part of the plan |
|
You would decide, you'd gamble your pride, but you would decide |
|
And now they've really got you tagged |
|
I saw you in the thinking game |
|
Now you're on the rocks with damaged brains |
|
Hold tight, hold tight, keep those hands on your given birthright |
|
Alright, alright, keep your eyes on the demon in disguise |
|
You must never close your eyes |
|
Right, each night think on back to your given birthright |
|
Hold tight, hold tight, just remember the feeling deep inside you |
|
You know they're trying to steal your thunder |
|
They're trying to erase your face |
|
Once you were a working man |
|
Now you're on the rocks with broken hands |
