NOBODY CARES

The skies are on fire the seas are alight
Everyone's headless in this great divide
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair

A child is orphaned her father is dead
What is this pounding? Inside my head
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair

Drugs in your bloodstream, who's in your bed?
Recycle the corpses just say what is said
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair

Desire is needy companions for sale
You don't want to be see it the cross and the nail
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair

Cowards speak courage bullies speak cuffs
What of the silence who speaks enough?
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair

Some carry burdens of wisdom defied
What's on your mind now? The life you denied?
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair

A graveyard lies waiting covered in green
Who bids the highest? For a future unseen
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair

What was the price then? What cost your choice?
Now that you're bought does your soul rejoice?
Nobody listens nobody cares
Everything's easy, everything's fair.
