Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Deep inside the border
Children are crying
Fighting for food
Holding their heads
Breaking their bread with a stone
All along the roadside
People are standing
Watching the sun
Shielding their eyes
Brushing the flies from their face
Tell me, what can you say?
Tell me, who do you blame?
Like a mirror, you see yourself
These people each have a name
All around the township
Young men are dying
Of hunger and thirst
The well has run dry
The tears from her eye feeds her son
Now tell me, what can you say?
Tell me, who do you blame?
Like a mirror, you see yourself
These people each have a name
ย
You say you're pulling back
We see the pictures everywhere
But what we don't see is what's going on
Behind the closed doors
You don't seem to care
You expect me to believe you
How can you really think?
But you can take your horse down to the water
Hold a gun at his head and make him drink
No matter what you say (no matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do (no matter what you do)
We never see any change
People living without rights
Without their dignity
But how loud does one man have to shout
To earn his right to be free
You can keep your toy soldiers
To segregate the black and white
But when the dust settles
And the blood stops running
How do you sleep at night?
No matter what you say (no matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do (no matter what you do)
We never see any change
No matter what you say (no matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do (no matter what you do)
We never see any change
ย
What makes you so high and mighty?
What makes you so qualified?
You can sit there and say how many have their freedom
But how many more have died?
You decide to sit in judgement
Trying to play God yourself
Ooh, but someday soon, the buck is gonna stop
Stop with you and no one else
No matter what you say (no matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do (no matter what you do)
We never see any change
No matter what you say (no matter what you say)
It never gets any better
No matter what you do (no matter what you do)
We never see any change
