Wake up America I got a problem
|
something you may not believe
|
there is poison in the darkness
|
spreading like a bad disease
|
i never thought I'd find myself in this condition
|
sitting by while children die from their addictions
|
|
(Chorus:)
|
I'm just a small town i have no tongue to speak
|
i have no arms to hold them while their dying in my streets
|
So I have to wonder does any body care.
|
Lord is there any hope out there?
|
|
Wake up America I got a problem
|
Venom flowing thru my veins
|
I see families town to pieces
|
By crystal meth and crack cocaine
|
Some of those sworn to provide us with protection
|
Just turn their backs and cut a deal with the infection
|
|
(Chorus:)
|
I'm just a small town i have no tongue to speak
|
i have no arms to hold them while their dying in my streets
|
So I have to wonder does any body care.
|
Lord is there any hope out there?
|
|
all those years i gave them peaceful sanctuary
|
now I'm a grave yard where the innocent are buried
|
|
(Chorus:)
|
I'm just a small town i have no tongue to speak
|
i have no arms to hold them while their dying in my streets
|
So I have to wonder does any body care.
|
Lord is there any hope out there?
|
|
Lord is there any hope out there?
|
Oh is there any hope out there?
|
wake up America i got a problem
|
[fading out]
|
i got a problem
|
it's like venom flowing thru my veins
|
