Cold and walking on their heads
Washing hands in tears they shed
As a child is born to a brand new day
Wars are lost and won
As the city sleeps
The dirty deeds are laid
And every time that you think
You're right you're wrong
Now it won't be long
'Till the voice of truth has had it's say
Now it won't be long
'Till everything that's owed is all repaid
Losing faith in honesty
Bathing in our sympathy
Well the child is torn to another way
He's speaking with a gun
Now the city weeps
The dirty deeds were played
And every time that he thinks
He's right he's wrong
Now it won't be long
'Till the voice of truth has had it's say
And it won't be long
'Till everything that's owed is all repaid
Yeah it won't be long
'Till karma comes around again
Around again my friend
As the raven screams
You'll never see the dawn
You look around
And everything you've had is gone
