I bet you weren't always
Like this, you've seen better days
I could guess how you slipped through
Maybe if I learned the truth
I'd see some of myself in you
What lays behind you
What lead you here to
Fight your demons alone
Are you a brother or somebody's mother
I want you to know
That I see you
Freak out walk on by
Just try not to catch your eye
Deep down we know it's wrong
We just keep walking along
As though your life doesn't matter at all
We worked hard for the money
Won't part with it easily
You're a stranger it's mine
We say it's justified
We say we know what our money will buy and decline
What lays behind you
What led you here to
Fight your demons alone
Are you a brother or somebody's mother
I want you to know
That I see you
What business is it of mine
We think it's up to us to decide
What you should be doing with your lives
You're drowning in dust but in money we trust
Something deep inside you has broken
We can't even spare you a moment
We believe we'd never be like you
You're drowning in dust
Cause in money we trust
What lays behind you
What lead you here to
Fight your demons alone
Are you a brother or somebody's mother
I want you to know
That I see you
