People are calling my name
They keep on calling and calling but I'm not answering
They don't want to talk
And people are laying the blame
They won't be happy 'till everyone else feels ashamed
They're picking up rocks
Chorus
But I'm not afraid of their laughter
I'm holding out for a hereafter
Here after all
People are playing a game
Winners and losers when everyone knows we're all the same
just counting the cost
And people are going insane
Shouting directions to someplace somewhere they never have been
I think that we're lost
Chorus
Day after day I'm running
I've got so far to go
follow the lines, stay on the road
But night after night they're calling
And putting on a show
Promise it all, at the price of my soul
People are living in pain
Looking for something or someone somewhere to feel good again
we're counting the cost
Chorus
And I'm not afraid of disaster
I'm holding out for a hereafter
Here after all
