In these "great" times
They say that you can do anything
Make it sound like
You can have it all
But that ain't true
Wake up to what's been happening
They're stealing from this world
They're stealing from you
Naked and bleeding
You're down on your knees
Naked and bleeding
You'll never be free
Naked and bleeding
With your back to the wall
Naked and bleeding
You got nothing at all
In these dark times
They want your dignity
Used and abused
Your life ain't what it ought to be
And when they tell you
"You gotta tighten your belt"
You know the hunger you're suffering
Is one that they ain't felt
They take the day - and turn it into night
They take your hope and give you nothing but lies
You gotta sweat - you gotta stay in line
Or try and change it - stand and fight
Naked and bleeding...
As time goes on
It never stops
You never get what you deserve
You never get what you need
There's always someone looking down
Always someone at the top
Screwing around with your life
Screwing up your life
Running the world - tearing it down
One day there'll be nothing left - do you give a damn?
Are you gonna stand - Or stay in line?
Are you gonna stand? Stand and fight...
Naked and bleeding...
