stand`by[00:00:03]
walk in a corner shop[00:00:03]
see a shoplifting cop[00:00:10]
see the old lady with a gun[00:00:13]
see the hero try 2 run[00:00:15]
nothing's what it seems, i mean[00:00:16]
it's not all dirty, but it's not all clean[00:00:18]
there's children paying bills[00:00:18]
there's monks buying thrills[00:00:21]
there's pride for sale in magazines[00:00:23]
there's pills for rent 2 make u clean[00:00:25]
marvin gaye, there's no brother, brother[00:00:27]
woody guthrie's land can't feed mother[00:00:27]
mothers weep, children sleep[00:00:31]
so much violence ends in silence[00:00:35]
it's a shame there's no one 2 blame[00:00:40]
for all the pain that life brings[00:00:44]
if u will just take me it might just complete me[00:00:44]
a waitress brings me lunch[00:00:44]
and together we can make a stand[00:00:45]
we meet but do not touch[00:00:45]
on tv, d.c. is selling lies[00:00:47]
while in the corner, king's dream dies[00:00:49]
go 2 the counter, pay for me and my friend[00:00:51]
a homeless man pulls out a roll, says it's on him[00:00:53]
the mayor has no cash[00:00:55]
mothers weep, children sleep[00:01:02]
so much violence ends in silence[00:01:06]
it's a shame there's no one 2 blame[00:01:11]
for all the pain that life brings[00:01:15]
if u will just take me it might just complete me[00:01:17]
and together we can make a stand[00:01:19]
u will love me, i will love u[00:01:23]
mothers weep, children sleep[00:01:26]
so much violence ends in silence[00:01:28]
it's a shame there's no one 2 blame[00:01:30]
for all the pain that life brings[00:01:33]
if u will just take me it might just complete me[00:01:35]
andtogether we can make a stand[00:01:37]
