God appeared to me, trying to ease my doubts
Told him everything's okay but I'm glad he reached out
Tell me how many hours in any single dull day
Can I pray to a league table but still it don't change?
And how many times in just one miserable life
Will they vote for the bastards who would sooner annex paradise?
You stand unmoving while the world keeps turning
Thought your heart was broken, but it's only yearning
Union Flag is waving while the building's burning
Embers ablaze, long throes always
Do you tire of excuses that you make for your parents?
How "they worked hard for their money", for your future inheritance?
You're all in agreement that the police are useless
They want them emboldened, baby, you want them bootless
The punks on the playlist are crooning for kindness
Asking "Why can't we all just get along?"
Me and my friends are sadists, backbreakers for spineless
Wish 'em dead and then we'll put it in a song
Capital don't care, we're eating at the trough
I'd like to teach the world to scream at all of the above
Anxieties and maladies and falling out of love
You stand unmoving while the world keeps turning
Thought your heart was broken, but it's only yearning
Union Flag is waving while the building's burning
Embers ablaze, long throes always
