Lyrics
Verse
Listen very hard to every word he says
Like following footsteps on foggy day
Running so hard to stand so still
You talk about the answers and they’re all the same
Wishing you were dead and born again
Feeding their greed, it’s you they need
Bridge
Feeling like you’re really in a distant land
Trying so hard to make them understand
That more than muscle maketh the man
Half Verse
Strictly confidential on every page
Persistence of existence from an early age
Finding the fact it never changed
Bridge
Desperation nation written on your face
Deep inside denied is such a lonely place
Something we are we haven’t come that far
Chorus
She cries give me dignity
Well it don’t come that easily
They said time would break those chains
But you’ve suffered fools again
Verse
Day two ninety seven five to go
The devil on your shoulder said I told you so
Wasting your life down the line
They told you all their secrets they told you lies
You somehow try to reach but there’s nothing inside
They’re moving the goals every time
Bridge
Living never giving in a pale illusion
Seeing and believing in this cold confusion
Turning away you never had your say
Double Chorus
Middle Eight
I can see you thinking this shouldn’t happen to me
Thousands like you living uncertainty
In the reality
She cries she cries
Chorus
