Against Us All
Let me ask you a question,
You never had no trouble in your life
You're always looking to show
There's nothing worse
Than weakness in your eyes
Worse than losing control.
What makes you think its easy?
The world turns,
It turns against us all.
You're passing judgment
On everyone you meet
You use your words like a whip
It's like there's something
Inside you can't defeat
You pounce when anyone slips
What makes you think its easy?
The world turns,
It turns against us all.
There's condescension
In every word you speak
Another rebel in black
I'd just be careful
With the stances that you take
Cause one day
It's all coming back.
Let me tell
A little secret that I know
I'll whisper in your ear.
While you're busy posturing for show
What does anyone care?
What makes you think its easy?
The world turns,
It turns against us all.
Do you think I'm making a mistake?
I lay it all on the line.
You're calculating all
The chances that you take
But one day soon
You will find the water's rising,
Moving over your head
Surprising you when you least expect
And I won't hold against you
All the things that you've said
There's some things
That you have to accept.
What makes you think its easy?
The world turns,
It turns against us all.
What makes you think its easy?
And who will be there
If you should ever fall?
