I've noticed there's little faith anymore But can you blame us?
We're all gutter fighters Waist deep, sewers overflow Blood and smoke on the radio It's no good news When you know, you know
Holding up in your ivory tower Cheap thrills and endless power Left to devour hour by hour When there's no-one else left to offend Tell yourself and try to pretend It's you, it's only you
Oh, can you look me in the face And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place I don't deserve the time, can't get the space Can't scream any louder Tainted by what's in power What's in power
Can you Can you Can you do the right thing?
I've noticed there's little faith anymore But can you blame us?
We'll hold our breath and take the plunge Amount of debt we cannot solve With a little wealth left to spare Pull us from our hopeless prayer Step up from your leather chair A throne from which war is declared, oh
All of us so All of us so soon All of us so All of us so soon
Oh, can you look me in the face And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place I don't deserve the time, can't get the space Can't scream any louder Tainted by what's in power What's in power
Look me in the face And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place I don't deserve the time, can't get the space Can't scream any louder Tainted by what's in power What's in power
Oh, can you look me in the face And tell me I'm not good enough to be in your place I don't deserve the time, can't get the space Can't scream any louder Tainted by what's in power What's in power
