Victims

Richard Coles, Jimmy Somerville

Billy sits alone and wonders
What to do and where to go
Billy grows tired every day
And meaning seems to fade away
Billy knows he's not alone
He knows he's not to blame
Others fear through ignorance
And Billy's scared to stay
Among the whispers barely spoken
Billy feels contempt
Indignant words from hypocrites
To them it's God's revenge

No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims

Billy worked with other men
To them was once a lad
When they learned of Billy's story
Went behind his back
Spread around the factory floor
Then Billy got the sack
Friends have washed their hands of Billy
He feels so betrayed

No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims

Billy's young and Billy's dying
Fighting every day
The few he trusts will give him strength
They will not walk away
Love will never wash its hands
And never will betray
Billy can't escape the truth
But he won't die alone

No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims

No-one to blame, there's only victims
No-one to blame, there's only victims
