Disrespect for a Voice Unheard
disrespect for a voice unheard
has left a void unfilled
white hot anger in my brain
as I see the numbers killed
helpless as I'm forced to be
the guilt it spreads inside
I would give my arms and legs
to still another unjust cry
for who could put a price
on another human life
and could you count the cost in gold
of another human soul
lip service is just spit in the wind
don't think you're making a difference
when all you do is pretend
and pick and choose the ones you care for
comfort yourself instead
I'm just as guilty but I know what's at stake
and those who kill don't show consistency
it doesn't matter where you come from
or who you are
we all bleed the same
I keep looking back, looking back
and im ashamed
I keep looking back, looking back
and I'm ashamed
of the thoughts that so encompass
of the thoughts that so encompass me
a condition I can't help
and I wish that I was somewhere else
somewhere else
somewhere else
disrespect for a voice unheard
has left a void unfilled
white hot anger in my veins
as I see the numbers killed
helpless as I'm forced to be,
the guilt it spreads inside
I would give my arms and legs
to still another unjust cry
has left a void unfilled
white hot anger in my brain
as I see the numbers killed
helpless as I'm forced to be
the guilt it spreads inside
I would give my arms and legs
to still another unjust cry
for who could put a price
on another human life
and could you count the cost in gold
of another human soul
lip service is just spit in the wind
don't think you're making a difference
when all you do is pretend
and pick and choose the ones you care for
comfort yourself instead
I'm just as guilty but I know what's at stake
and those who kill don't show consistency
it doesn't matter where you come from
or who you are
we all bleed the same
I keep looking back, looking back
and im ashamed
I keep looking back, looking back
and I'm ashamed
of the thoughts that so encompass
of the thoughts that so encompass me
a condition I can't help
and I wish that I was somewhere else
somewhere else
somewhere else
disrespect for a voice unheard
has left a void unfilled
white hot anger in my veins
as I see the numbers killed
helpless as I'm forced to be,
the guilt it spreads inside
I would give my arms and legs
to still another unjust cry
