Nobody cares, no one's concerned
We all stand watching while the city burns
Some are jumping from the windows.
Some are crying in the street
And the situation's worsening
While the chasms getting deep.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/c/clifford+t+ward/leader_20513847.html ]
They outlawed compassion
They tarred and feathered hope.
The Church cried out "Have mercy!"
While hanging from a rope
But the gunman shouts the loudest
And the people listen well
While the city keeps on burning
In the rising flames of hell.
