The pain was on your face As they sat you down and told you by your side Haven't we grown tired of all their old lies? Their talk of sacrifice They went just by the book Told us everything we saw while nobody looked Suddenly we're caught under this dark sky But they don't mind No they don't mind I recall you screaming on the line You gave up everything But they don't seem to know you now And if you keep it all inside He was your only son How we've heard it all before
He should've had all the time that he wanted He was your only living boy You can say what you like Cause they won't ever follow you Follow you It's in our living rooms So it's placed down in the drains And in our minds So easily they got us all to one side But we don't mind No we don't mind I recall you falling to the ground You gave up everything But they don't seem to owe you now And if we keep it all inside
