Murder on the Orient Express

by Us

on Just (2019)

[Verse 1]
Can't you see it's all a frame
We all just support suffering
Even though, we try to help
It's a crying shame
We
Are
All
Evil

[Verse 2]
I feel bad about the thoughts I found fair
Before, I could even know or was aware
Was I dead?
Before my eyes rested outside my head

[Verse 3]
Can I ask you a question?
Can I ask you a few?
Do you know what we're made of?
Do you have any clue?
Do you get why we do this?
Why we do all we do
Will we do something new?
Will our kids say we grew?
Do you know what we're made of?
Is the future in view?
Why we do all we do
Can I ask you a question?
Do you have any clue?
Can we break through?

[Verse 4]
A man with a gun lives here
In fear of the man who has no house to sleep in
No food to eat and no pot to piss in
What's to lose with one shoe missing?
To academics he's just a statistic
"It's just systemic"
Built by pathetic politicians and apathetic citizens of epic proportions
And an elite few with disproportionate fortunes
What is just when the kids are hungry?
What is just when we appease the junky?
What is just trade the countries health for a companies wealth, 'fuck the sick, gotta make the money'
Schools don't want you educated, and prisons profit from the incarcerated
The highest court tilts the scales to keep us separated until we kill ourselves, exonerated

[Verse 5]
Lately it's hard to remember what police are for
Can you imagine no locks on our doors?
Nothing is stolen 'cause nobody wants what is yours
Nobody wants what is yours 'cause nobody needs
Nobody needs 'cause nobody's poor
Nobody's poor 'cause no one has greed and the willing and power to bring us to war
When the law is run by the man, and the man is run by the money
Pain and profit go hand in hand, so take a stand, we'll face the ugly
Death and suffering; supply and demand
The rich stay alive but not all can withstand
All for the grace, and none for the blame
A man with a knife but the wound ain't the same

[Bridge]
Could you kill if you thought it was just?
If you thought would help, if you thought it would ease, if you thought it would heal, if you thought it'd bring peace, if you thought it'd feed meals to those don't eat
But is it just, do you think?
If you'd spill a life just to drink
If you'd put out a light just to blink
How do you sleep at night?

[Outro]
I don't know what justice is
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know what justice is
We
Are
All
Evil
