Lyric Rags To Riches

It s a sign of the times, standing in line
Quietly waiting to go out of your mind
There s nothing to say, no reason to stay
To fight for the right that they have taken away
Get what you get, not what you need
Time after time

* Rags to riches, all fallen down
Rags to riches, tied up and bound
There s no going under
When you re kicked to the ground
Rags to riches..rags to riches

You re down on your knees, caught in the freeze
Crying inside but there s no easy release
Radical views--in yesterday news
Giving the reason with another excuse
Out on your own, cut to the bone
Time after time

repeat * (2x)
