Lyrics
First they ignore you
Then laugh at you and hate you
Then they fight you
Then you win
When the truth dies very bad things happen
They're being heartless again
I know it's coming there's going to be violence
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take
Why do you think we should suffer in silence
When a heart is broken there's nothing to break
You've been mixing with some very heavy faces
The boys have done a bit of bird
They don't kill their own
And they all love their mothers
But you're out of your depth son have a word
I know it's coming there's going to be violence
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take
Why do you think we should suffer in silence
The heart is broken there's nothing to break
All is wonderful in past lives
Dreaming of the sun she warms
You should see me in the afterlife
Picking up the sons of dust
When you think we're lost we're exploring
What you think is worthless
I'm adoring
You don't want the truth the truth is boring
I've got this fever need to
Leave the house
Leave the car
Leave the bad men where they are
I leave a few shells in my gun
And stop me staring at the sun
I know it's coming there's going to be violence
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take
Why do you say we should suffer in silence
My heart is broken there's nothing to break
I know it's coming there's going to be violence
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take
Why do you think we should suffer in silence
The heart is broken there's nothing to break
