He sits and says he's sick and tired of the argument He's heard them all and it makes no change when the money's spent And all his life he's had to watch the way he's went No less in need no less deceived by the violence She stands and says let my man go Let them all go free But the diamond's talk And fools gold is bought Where the market's free The sticks come down The bombs go off The world is guilty She holds no power Just a love of truth For her own country I'm not waving I'm drowning I've come too far out here I'm not waving I'm drowning And there's no way you can hear I was too far out all of my life I'm not waving but drowning For everyone whose life is run by their daily bread Another one holds a loaded gun at someone's head And we stuck fast and our petty fears are already dead While division rules and tradition's roles We are all mislead I'm not waving I'm drowning I've come too far out here I'm not waving I'm drowning And there's no way you can hear I was too far out all of my life I'm not waving but drowning I'm not waving I'm drowning I've come too far out here I'm not waving I'm drowning And there's no way you can hear I was too far out all of my life I'm not waving but drowning
