歌詞

Watch them laugh unashamed while they tear your rights away They're counting on your silence Broken down by the weight of the climate they create Psychological violence And it's all for one and none for us Just pretend you don't see it Try to blame only one, but accept that we've become A system that feeds it And we've taken a beating The crooked arm of the law Authority overreaching Dignity crushed in its claws Take a look all around, won't be long before you found Blatant intimidation At the hands of a few, decorated all in blue They suppress the accusations Keep your head bowed down and don't look back Keep your hands in your pockets People have died for less than that Made one wrong move, they got it in the back And the moment of outrage Matters not in the least A little slap upon the wrist Welcome to the belly of the beast Little men with little minds, little rules that they define These things are connected Trust them with power without thinking twice, every man has got a price Do you feel protected? The chance is too much to resist, to hold another under your fist I'd like to believe that Each time another's lost something is gained, the blue becomes a reddish stain And we are reminded of who they really are
