Tekst piosenki:
Pardon my French, but it's all Greek to me
When an innocent child is allowed to drown out at sea
Our flags are just fiction, our borders just air
So regardless of roots you can't tell me that you don't care
Because I know for a fact that when it's at your front door
When it's your youngest child that you see washed ashore
When the bombs are in your backyard and you're under attack When the victim is you, you'll be the first to react
Every life is a cost, every soul is a sell
We're all cynics at best, we're all under a spell
We don't do a thing about it
Every hand is a help, every dream is a hope
We're all doing our best, we're all trying to cope
There's no reason we should doubt it
So if we let them in, and then force them back
And build a big fucking wall, what kind of signal is that
We care a lot but we don't, because we don't want to lose
The benefits that we have, because we've all paid our dues
When it makes the news and you're safe in your own home It's so easy to care, in your own comfort zone
So we take what we get, like a natural fact
But we don't seem to care enough to give something back
Every life is a cost, every soul is a sell
We're all cynics at best, we're all under a spell
We don't do a thing about it
Every hand is a help, every dream is a hope
We're all doing our best, we're all trying to cope
There's no reason we should doubt it
The truth is so plain despite our different names
Cost at the end of the day we're all really the same
Our skin colors may vary, our religion as well
But we all want forgiveness, from heaven or hell
Every life is a cost, every soul is a sell
We're all cynics at best, we're all under a spell
We don't do a thing about it
Every hand is a help, every dream is a hope
We're all doing our best, we're all trying to cope
There's no reason we should doubt it
