"The Great Depression" lyrics

"The Great Depression"

We are hiding in our shells
Dreading the next day in our cells
We witness our human flaws
We pity ourselves and our course

Are we not strong enough for life?
The terrible truth cuts like a knife
See me go on
See me unharmed

Afraid of shadows in the dark
Will I ever make it to my mark?
Tears flow from my heart
I must go on and play my part
See me go on
See me unharmed

The great depression for everyone
The great oppression has just begun
So much you relied upon
Seek for all who have gone beyond

No one will listen, no one's there
No one cares, they're running scared
So many times we were lied upon
The truth and all is long gone beyond

See me go on
You shall do no harm
No harm, no harm
