Who Do We Not Save
"Check on your friends" they say
"Check on your friends"
But what do you do when you can't do
Enough to help them?
We pass the load between us
Until we self destruct
We have to bear a system
That doesn't care for us
And when we're finally strong enough to
Admit we're at our worst
We get stuck on waiting lists
While those with power get served first
We're one or two paychecks away
While they decide who they won't save
You and I are collateral damage
We are all just collateral damage
We look down on those
Who struggle to survive
When they put up a paywall
Could you pay to stay alive?
It won't matter how long
Or badly you are aching
They'll gatekeep your health
When there's money to be making
We're sick and tired and
Can't just wait around
For things to get better
We're sick and tired of too little too late,
We cannot hold out forever
We're one or two paychecks away
While they decide who they won't save
You and I are collateral damage
We are all just collateral damage
Collateral damage
"Check on your friends"
But what do you do when you can't do
Enough to help them?
We pass the load between us
Until we self destruct
We have to bear a system
That doesn't care for us
And when we're finally strong enough to
Admit we're at our worst
We get stuck on waiting lists
While those with power get served first
We're one or two paychecks away
While they decide who they won't save
You and I are collateral damage
We are all just collateral damage
We look down on those
Who struggle to survive
When they put up a paywall
Could you pay to stay alive?
It won't matter how long
Or badly you are aching
They'll gatekeep your health
When there's money to be making
We're sick and tired and
Can't just wait around
For things to get better
We're sick and tired of too little too late,
We cannot hold out forever
We're one or two paychecks away
While they decide who they won't save
You and I are collateral damage
We are all just collateral damage
Collateral damage
