Memphis 歌詞

We all pretend that the world's not changing We all believe we deserve much more But deep inside there's no denying The rising tides have reached our shores Get in line and set the outcome Feed the rich and rob the poor Tell myself that it's not worth fighting When will we wake up? Why can't we see there's more to life than misery? How can we fly when we clip our own wings? How can we drown out all the sounds of hate, When everybody screams, "What has this world done for me?" We close our eyes as the kids are dying We pull the shades and lock the doors We all complain as we sit in silence We cheat the game while keeping score Get in line and set the outcome Feed the rich and rob the poor Tell myself that it's not worth fighting When will we wake up? Why can't we see there's more to life than misery? How can we fly when we clip our own wings? How can we drown out all the sounds of hate, When everybody screams, "What has this world done for me?" Why can't we see there's more to life than misery? How can we fly when we clip our own wings? How can we drown out all the sounds of hate, When everybody screams, "What has this world done for me?"
