Swallow
I don't know who the fuck you are
The liars with the promises that they're the ones who care
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
And maybe the system works
But I sure as hell don't
Struggling with my self worth
Hoping someday that I won't
And it weighs down on us
These futures of uncertainty
Not sure what matters most
Doesn't seem like you or me
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
And if you can't do a thing for us
Then how about the planet
Because at the very least
You're also gonna need it
Show us you can give a damn
That you could grow a spine
Do something while you can
Before we all run out of time
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
Guess I should be thankful
That we're so fucking free
Free to take our own lives
Or lie dying in the streets
And everything we have
Just leaves us feeling empty
So we'll search for happiness
Where they never told us it would be
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
The liars with the promises that they're the ones who care
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
And maybe the system works
But I sure as hell don't
Struggling with my self worth
Hoping someday that I won't
And it weighs down on us
These futures of uncertainty
Not sure what matters most
Doesn't seem like you or me
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
And if you can't do a thing for us
Then how about the planet
Because at the very least
You're also gonna need it
Show us you can give a damn
That you could grow a spine
Do something while you can
Before we all run out of time
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
Guess I should be thankful
That we're so fucking free
Free to take our own lives
Or lie dying in the streets
And everything we have
Just leaves us feeling empty
So we'll search for happiness
Where they never told us it would be
And we might swallow that if it was brightly coloured
Our solution to the fact that we feel totally ignored
As we come to terms with that we've got no futures
While the ones without a voice are those dying to be heard
Whoever you represent I've never met
