lyrics

The powers at be, they love misery, but my hands aren't clean- I'm in bed with it too- destroying ourselves, with nothing to do.
You might think that ain't true. Open your eyes, look around you. You might think, "No, not me." If you live well, you should feel sorry.
I know I don't speak for everyone. In fact, I quite often feel alone. And all these sad truths are bringing me down. Life's just a game where you work around them.
It's not the fault of anyone; it's just a sad phenomenon that power corrupts and greed divides- it'll exploit, it'll destroy you.
But my country don't give a fuck, and I know why. My country don't give a fuck 'cause we don't know what love is.
I know it's harsh, it's unfair. I know I'm a hypocrite. I know you don't care, but I'm on our side, and I speak the truth: you are the stranger, the stranger is you.
