Stockyard Stoics – Justice Denied lyrics

Justice denied!

You're laughing you're crying
Before you know it you'll be dying, young
Another angry son
It's too fast for you to run
Too far for you to see
Not for the likes of you and me
Put your muzzle to the bit
You won't amount to shit

You're laughing down the sidewalk you're dancing through the rain
You slip and fall along the way but you don't stop to feel the pain
The same is same as ever was but you don't think to see
Somewhere up ahead you thought you might have seen a little piece of free
Free! Not for you and me
Free! Free! Like a bird on the wing
Free! Free! Not for you and me
Free go fly away home

You're bruising you're losing
Your race is run before it can begin
For the colour of your skin
Or for the fires that burn within
You're crying
For the little bird that you found dying
Cut down before it learned to fly
Little bird is quickly learning how to die

You're laughing down the sidewalk you're dancing through the rain
You slip and fall along the way but you don't stop to feel the pain
The same is same as ever was but you don't think to see
Somewhere up ahead you thought you might have seen a little piece of free
Free! Not for you and me
Free! Free! Like a bird on the wing
Free! Free! Not for you and me
Free go fly away home

Blunted minds! Justice denied
Battered hides! Justice denied
From the cradle to the grave
Hopes embalmed and dreams enslaved
Blunted minds! Justice denied
Battered hides! Justice denied
They dream of a world of grey
But us dogs will have our day
We'll have our day

Justice Denied!
