Crying Shame Lyrics

Oh Lord, why'd you give me a rebels soul

No one wants to hear the truth no more

They'd rather just not know

I'm tired of all the swimming

against the tide.

And the waves keep on crashing down on me

It's getting hard to do what's right.

They promised us change and better days,

but it's all for their greed

All for they're gain,

They're playing with our trust, like it's all a just a game.

What a crying shame

Now families are torn and lives a stake

But who gives a shit, raise the interest rates

For the glorious and the free

That once stood for you and me

And it was all done in vain so now we go down in flames

What a crying shame

Im just a sinner

I ain't no saint

We all could use some saving

Before we're judged at the gates

But it's hard to be faithful

When we're losing our home

From the land that we've walked on

To the seeds that we've sown

They promised us change and better days,

but it's all for their greed

All for they're gain,

They're playing with our trust, like it's all a just a game.

What a crying shame

Now families are torn and lives a stake

But who gives a shit, raise the interest rates

For the glorious and the free

That once stood for you and me

And it was all done in vain so we go down in flames

What a crying shame

A crying shame

It's a crying shame

And who's to blame

For this crying shame

Watch us all go down in flames

What a crying shame
