Waiting at the traffic lights Your skin is cold and your fists clench tight At first we’re just strangers But now I know you well
It’s crazy, I know But under your coat Is a heart beating just like mine And God only knows I’ve felt that cold I’ve felt that damp rising up inside
I don’t know your name but I know who you are You’re like a child that’s screaming save me from the dark
Somebody hold me Somebody own me Somebody take away this pain Somebody hold me And bring me back to life again It’s a God ugly world If the tables were turned, Would you have what it takes to survive? It’s a God ugly world When you’re not being heard And you feel you’ve been left there to die It’s a God ugly world It’s a God ugly world
You were once a father, once a mother Once a sister to someone else’s brother The journey was short but it took your life You know your pride
It’s crazy, I know But under your coat Is a heart beating just like mine And God only knows I’ve felt that cold I’ve felt that damp rising up inside
I don’t know your name but I know who you are You’re like a child that’s screaming save me from the dark
Somebody hold me Somebody own me Somebody take away this pain Somebody hold me And bring me back to life again It’s a God ugly world If the tables were turned, Would you have what it takes to survive? It’s a God ugly world When you’re not being heard And you feel you’ve been left there to die It’s a God ugly world It’s a God ugly world It’s a God ugly world
It’s crazy, I know But under your coat Is a heart beating just like mine And God only knows I’ve felt the cold I’ve felt the damp rising up inside
