The Mercer - Say Your Name Lyrics

We've all been waiting for the sundown to return
But now we're left in darkness and the pain it burns
We lost the one who made us proud of who we are
And when I heard that song start playin' in the car

I wondered if our lives would ever feel the same
Or if we'd be left wonderin', who is to blame?
I haven't seen your face in days and I'm ashamed
The only time they say your name is when they're getting paid, yeah

To find a way to say the words that can't escape your brain
It's absolutely vital to not go fully insane
So take another shot and have a smoke to kill the pain
'Cuz no-one's gonna help you when your bank account is drained, yeah yeah yeah

Corporate greed, it took ahold of everything
And made it near impossible to get on stage and sing
Unless you lie to everyone, about what you bring
If you don't give respect to this you should be away, yeah

I wondered if our lives would ever feel the same
Or if we'd be left wonderin', who is to blame?
I haven't seen your face in recent days and I'm ashamed
The only time they say your name is when they're getting paid, yeah
When they're gettin' paid, yeah
When they're getting paid
