The Afterglow - Nothing You Can Do lyrics

{Verse 1} What would you say if tomorrow was the end? Would you lose all your morals and your truths? Losing all that we held so true Deep inside, oh so deep, deep inside... {Chorus 1} On the last day I'll be standing here With a smile upon my face And there’s nothing you can do to get me down Nothing you can do to make me frown {Verse 2} The soldiers say, the soldiers say There's a place you go when you die And you're face to face, yeah face to face, with the man who made you fight He says to them, he says to them You’ve thrown away all your lives And they reply, yes thanks to those who ordered us to die {Repeat Chorus 1} {Chorus 2} On this very day I'm standing here With disgust at my own race And there's nothing you can do to make it right It make me ashamed to be white Theres nothing you can do, to make me forgive you
