lyrics

A winter wind it whips through my bones
And black ice forms 'round my mouth
I stuff my hands into my gloves
And dream about heading south
I'd say a prayer for a better time
But I fear that I'd be struck dumb
No sense trying to fight the tide
A change has come
No I don't want a slice of the pie
I'd settle for a crumb
But I see you have licked the plate clean
A change has come

An angry mob it takes to the streets
They are screaming what they're angry for
They want justice and they want more junk
And they want in on the ground floor
A man he shouts from the balcony
He chews his words as he chews his gum
"Come unto to me you wretched lot
A change has come"
They listen close but not too close
He grins and he raises his thumb
"I am here to save your souls
A change has come"

There is crap all over the internet
And crazy stories on the TV
All of them add up to nothing at all
Nothing more than insanity
I wish there were a place that I could hide
Or I could reduce myself to feeling numb
But everyone wanted the world to change
And a change has come
I can't hope for nothing now, the game is zero sum
I stuff my hands into my gloves
A change has come
