From under these dark clouds
Could we rise above
To see the peaks erode
As time takes its toll
How could we carry on
And let it crush us whole
I'd burn off all the scars
If I could let them go
Could we break the binds
The rope that silence holds
The fuse that sets you off
And caves in your walls
Tell me how could we carry on
And who carry us
What budgets will you cut
What programs will you bleed
Overwhelmed and underspent
What family will you feed
You've got your mind made up
Sew the seeds but you'll never reap
Overwhelmed and underspent
Whose family will you feed
And who will carry us
Whose family will you feed
From under these dark cloud
