Album: Perfect Lies

Lost track of all the saviors
- They're safer in the ground
Our dreams for change
They never change, somehow

Trains are filled with TV prophets
They profit when we cower
Cross my heart and hold my tongue

They always talk of change
Till chains come

And all the drugs in the world
Can't revive our feelings
All the words we serve
Don't make us believe in
A rebirth of love
A reversal of our lot

Who hears the 'winds of change' in a rain that floods?

We still hear the trumpet blowing
But it ain't the lord that comes
The song of change is chained to us

They always talk of change
Till chains come

And all the drugs in the world
Can't revive our feelings
All the words we serve
Won't make us believe in
A rebirth of love
A reversal of our lot

And all the things we've burnt
Can't revise our fears
And all the ones we've hurt
In six thousand years
Can't resurrect our trust
We have murdered faith in us

Who said the times they are a-changing us?

[Chains of change, chains of change, chains of change]
