Stand

Walk in a corner shop

See a shoplifting cop

See the old lady with a gun

See the hero try 2 run

Nothing's what it seems I mean

It's not all dirty but it's not all clean

There's children paying bills

There's monks buying thrills

There's pride for sale in magazines

There's pills for rent 2 make u clean

Marvin Gaye there's no brother brother

Woody Guthrie's land can't feed Mother

Mothers weep children sleep

So much violence ends in silence

It's a shame there's no one 2 blame

For all the pain that life brings

If u will just take me

It might just complete me

And together we can make a stand

A waitress brings me lunch

We meet but do not touch

On TV D C is selling lies

While in the corner King's dream dies

Go 2 the counter pay for me and my friend

A homeless man pulls out a roll says it's on him

The mayor has no cash

He said he spent it on hookers and hash

Mothers weep children sleep

So much violence ends in silence

It's a shame there's no one 2 blame

For all the pain that life brings

If u will just take me It might just complete me

And together we can make a stand

U will love me I will love u

U will love me I will love u

Mothers weep children sleep

So much violence ends in silence

It's a shame there's no one 2 blame

For all the pain that life brings

If u will just take me It might just complete me

And together we can make a stand

Mothers weep children sleep

So much violence ends in silence

It's a shame there's no one 2 blame

For all the pain that life brings

If u will just take me It might just complete me

And together we can make a stand

Mothers weep children sleep

So much violence ends in silence

It's a shame there's no one 2 blame

For all the pain that life brings

If u will just take me It might just complete me
