Crimes of the Witness
You pray a prayer and pledge allegiance
Read your USA Today
Skim the wars and hungry faces
Decide the world has lost its way
You swear that you're helpless
Afraid of trying your compassion
Nothing ventured, nothing lost
Always keeping to the sidelines
As if they're never to be crossed
You swear that you're helpless
Safe in the shadows
Watch from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
You must have overheard her cryjng
Felt a sorrow in the air
But you kept yourself believing
That it was none of your affair
You swear that you're helpless
Safe in the shadows
Watch from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
(Sax solo)
Safe in the shadows
Watch from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
Safe in the shadows
Judge from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
Read your USA Today
Skim the wars and hungry faces
Decide the world has lost its way
You swear that you're helpless
Afraid of trying your compassion
Nothing ventured, nothing lost
Always keeping to the sidelines
As if they're never to be crossed
You swear that you're helpless
Safe in the shadows
Watch from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
You must have overheard her cryjng
Felt a sorrow in the air
But you kept yourself believing
That it was none of your affair
You swear that you're helpless
Safe in the shadows
Watch from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
(Sax solo)
Safe in the shadows
Watch from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
Safe in the shadows
Judge from a distance
Finally committing
Crimes of the witness
