Symapathise with the Cost

I read the paper today and it said that it changes oh how you feel
I read the news and they say that it's only a range of different views
Now, it's four o'clock and I'm done
Better the truth should not be heard
Better the people say the word so, I'll try
To comply

You say the system has changed and I think it's the reason you will not learn
We think we're ready, but I think it's the ready that never ever turns
To symapathise with the cost
Better the people who say the word
Better than God who can't be heard so, I'll try
To comply

Too late, if I wasn't open sideways
I would be left by myself
And I couldn't find a way from these rotten, rotten lies, take
Away the phony shame
So I guess it's just
Too late, if I wasn't open sideways, I would be left by myself

And I couldn't find a way from these rotten, rotten lies, take
Away the phony shame
And I couldn't find a way
To symapathise with the cost
Better the people who can't be heard
Better the truth should not be heard so, I'll try
To comply

I read the paper today and it said that it changes oh how you feel
