Empty Handed - Better Off

I need some answers

I’m sick of the tension

My subtle obsession

With meeting the end

Run for the fixes

You trying defenseless

Of calling all sets now

That’s just the way it is

That’s just the way it is

I’m smelting your conscience

It’s your choice to look away

But you picked your believes

Seeing double

I could see you struggle

By little take it all

And never give away

Heavy handed

demanded

You cut the child loose

And now he ran away

They always run away

I’m smelting your conscience

It’s your choice to look away

But you picked your believes

Keep your hands in your pockets

Don’t work if there is no pay

Leave empty handed

Oh the still goes wrong without

Little boys grow old on the outside

Inside they rot until they’re dead

I’m smelting your conscience

It’s your choice to look away

But you picked your believes

Keep your hands in your pockets

Don’t work if there is no pay

Leave empty handed
