  			F       Am        Dm    (throughout) 
First they ignore you 
then laugh at you and hate you 
then they fight you - then you win 
When the truth dies 
Very bad things happen 
They're being heartless again 
{Chorus} 
F           Am                          Dm 
I know it's coming, there's going to be violence 
F             Am                    Dm 
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take 
F          Am                        Dm 
Why do you think we should suffer in silence 
F               Am                        Dm 
When a heart is broken, there's nothing to break 
 
You've been mixing with some very heavy faces 
the boys have done a bit of bird 
They don't kill their own 
and they all love their mothers 
but you're out of your depth son 
have a word 
{Chorus) 
I know it's coming, there's going to be violence 
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take 
Why do you think we should suffer in silence 
The heart is broken, there's nothing to break 
Dm     Am           Em   G 
All is wonderful in past lives 
Dm       Am             Em      G 
Dreaming of the sun she warms 
Dm         Am            Em   G 
You should see me in the afterlife 
Dm      Am             Em    G 
Picking up the sons of dust 
(no chords} 
When you think we're lost, we're exploring 
what you think is worthless, I'm adoring 
You don't want the truth, truth is boring 
I got this fever need to 
Leave the house, leave the car 
Leave the bad men where they are 
Leave a few shells in my gun 
Stop me staring at the sun 
{Chorus)  
I know it's coming, there's going to be violence 
I've taken as much as I'm willing to take 
Why do you say we should suffer in silence 
My heart is broken, there's nothing to break
