Whistleblower lyrics

How could I have known

The hollowness of bones

Until I was shown

The weight of being alone

The edge of all that is

Pierces slowly in

Opens up the skin

Takes as well as gives

But you could be the whistleblower

You could really sound it out

The end of all the willful blindness

Mayor of the town

This is how the deal came to be

This is how the deal came to be

So I could really use

The decency of youth

I am so fed up with all of you

Present company excluded

All this suffice to say

I'll come back from being away

Get complacent and unawake

Back to my senses

But you could be the whistleblower

You could really sound it out

The end of all the willful blindness

Mayor of the town

This is how the deal came to be...
