What About Justice

Children 18:3


Help me out, I'm the last one standing
Pick a fight that nobody knows
What about singin' our own ending
Keep in mind, you're never alone

Shot down, you were barely alive
Give her a choice to look the other way
In the dark she was shown no mercy
What they stole, she couldn't replace
Never repaid, never repaid, shiver and walk away

What can I say? They're looking at me for answers
What can I say? They're looking at me, they're looking at me

Pull me in, I'm a terrible drifter
Cast off and carried away
Let it ring, a mechanical listener
No choice and nothing to say

Born free is a criminal lie
Hold your breath and look the other way
Giving in to a chemical fixer
Raise the glass and swallow the pain
Never to blame, never to blame, shove it and walk away

What can I say? They're looking at me for answers
What can I say? They're looking at me, they're looking at me
What if I'm just as lost?
What if I'm just as, just as afraid?
What if I'm just as lost and running?
What if I'm just as, just as afraid?

Ran out of excuses when the bet was made
Why am I afraid of every word you say?
No one gets out of anything
There's no other way, there's no other way

What about justice?
