Sound is all around us, everywhere
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 worth and power
Worth and 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 worth and power
Worth and 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 worth and power
Worth and 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 worth and power
Worth and power
Can you
Can you
Can you do the right thing?
