Like a rat on a sinking ship

It strains to save its skin

Trying hard to crack the whip

My body reeks with sin



On the TV the preacher's preach

About a better world

I had to laugh when I read the speech

And take it for what it's worth



And if you think it's fixed

Then you're just a fool

You can't change the world

When you can't even find the truth



I don't want to live without her

Even though at times I've lost my mind



Hear the sound of the crying kid

Count how many tears

Hear the laugh of the drunken dad

Count how many beers



Into the shools the teachers teach

About the sins of the past

Blaming others for the problems here

They can kiss my ass



And if you think it's fixed

Then you're just a fool

You can't change the world

When you can't even find the truth



I don't want to live without her

Even though at times I've lost my mind

I will never give up on her

Just give me one more chance

And watch me shine
