|
Like a rat on a sinking ship |
|
It strains to save its skin |
|
Trying hard to crack the whip |
|
My body reeks with sin |
|
On the TV the preacher's preach |
|
About a better world |
|
I had to laugh when |
|
I read the speech |
|
And take it for what it's worth |
|
And if you think it's fixed |
|
Then you're just a fool |
|
You can't change the world |
|
When you can't even find the truth |
|
I don't want to live without her |
|
Even though at times |
|
I've lost my mind |
|
Hear the sound of the crying kid |
|
Count how many tears |
|
Hear the laugh of the drunken dad |
|
Count how many beers |
|
Into the schools the teachers teach |
|
About the sins of the past |
|
Blaming others for the problems here |
|
They can kiss my ass |
|
And if you think it's fixed |
|
Then you're just a fool |
|
You can't change the world |
|
When you can't even find the truth |
|
I don't want to live without her |
|
Even though at times |
|
I've lost my mind |
|
I will never give up on her |
|
Just give me one more chance |
|
And watch me shine |
