Rags to Riches
It's a sign of the times, standing in line
Quietly waiting to go out of your mind
There's nothing to say, no reason to stay
To fight for the right that they have taken away
Get what you get, not what you need
Time after time
* Rags to riches, all fallen down
Rags to riches, tied up and bound
There's no going under
When you're kicked to the ground
Rags to riches.rags to riches
You're down on your knees, caught in the freeze
Crying inside but there's no easy release
Radical views--in yesterday news
Giving the reason with another excuse
Out on your own, cut to the bone
Time after time
repeat * (2x)
