It's in the air you breathe and it's also in the water - It's something you can't see, you've been warned of by your mothers - You've had enough deceit, You know enough to see - Join the others - When you could hardly breathe, you were wondering why you bothered - And they gave us seven days to renounce our wicked ways - Too late to make amends becase we both know how this ends - So do the right thing or do nothing - (What will you do when they come for you?) - Or just do what is easier - (What will you do when they come for you?) - THat is what I read what I swear they said to me - Nine times out of ten they lied to me - And after all they had the gall to say - "Son, no one will save you now" - We want it, they got it - They claim we'll die without it - But something tells me they are wrong - So what will you do when they call your name and you're not ready to go? - Everyone will stare at you and tell you what you know - That you're in too deep and you can't quite keep your secrets, one and all - We might just make it after all, on our own - We might just make it after all - But we had one foot on the gas and one foot in the grave - Everyone was laughing when we said we had it made - Started with six or seven, moved on to eight or nine - (What will you do when they come for you?) - Nobody seemed to notice, nobody seemed to mine - (What will you do when they come for you?) - Little miss demissed can't miss like a detuned radio - I cannot believe you when you tell me what you know - And nothing will be broken if your house is made of stone - But you will know as I do it will never be a home
