[Verse 1]
Look at you now
Getting every last thing that you want
You're safe for the moment
It's out of your hands
It's the thing you keep saying aloud
Your self-answered prayer
But you'll find a way to hate it
Find a way to hate it
Every thing that you got
Just so long as it's yours
There's a price upon it
And you're not gonna be the one to pay it
And you know that that's by design
[Chorus]
And your problem
Is you let yourself think you deserve this
The protection you get
And you're sorry
And you're guilty
Until you forget
[Verse 2]
It starts when you wake up
Six in the morning
Sterilized darkness
And silent reprieve
The day is full of promise
The news is full of pictures
Little children under rubble
And they look just like yours
The ages of the victims
Faces of the victims
And the casual precision
When they tally the count
You don't have a hand in it
You don't have to answer for it
You can be forgiven for it
And it's never in doubt
[Chorus]
And your problem
Is you let yourself think you deserve this
The protection you get
And you're sorry
And you're guilty
Until you forget
[Bridge]
You got lucky this time
(You sick fuckers)
Oh, you got lucky this time
[Chorus]
And your problem
Is you let yourself think you deserve this
The protection you get
And you're sorry
And you're guilty
Until you forget
