[Verse 1]
Have you heard the news today?
The bombs are dropped, the swamp is drained
America is finally getting saved!
11 million off of Medicaid
Temperatures rise like interest rates
Built Auschwitz in the Everglades
And sold merch at the front gate
[Verse 2]
They're starving, sick and sleep deprived
But they don't look like you or I
Guess empathy don't cross state lines
In the great US of A
The flag’s got no more blue or white
They sold the stars, we all wear stripes
No need to read between the lines
When there's blood spilled on the page
[Pre-Chorus]
Never again means not today
You gave the man your eyes
So you could sleep at night
But you still hear their cries
[Chorus]
You can't outrun this shame
This land was yours and mine
Until they bled it dry
History won't be kind
To those who turn the other way
[Bridge / Verse 3]
Empathy becomes partisan
When rights get framed as politics
Born-again republicans
Start ditching what their scripture says
Hate thy neighbor, turn 'em in
And burn amendments five and ten
The faithful bent the cross to fit
But heavy is the crown that sits
[Build]
Atop his empty head
He'll only pledge allegiance
To self-interest, to help the rich
Get rich at your expense
While you absolve his sins
And your indifference
Ain’t righteousness
It’s evil at its best
Celebrate ignorance
And cheer and clap as the boot steps
On your neck ‘til it snaps
[Chorus / Outro]
You gave the man your eyes
So you could sleep at night
But you still hear their cries
You can't outrun this shame
This land was yours and mine
Until they bled it dry
History won't be kind
To those who turned the other way
[Outro / Oohs]
Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooooh, Can you hear them crying?
Ooh ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ooh
I still hear them crying...
