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
