FOR THEIR OWN BENEFIT (ACOUSTIC DEMO)
David William
Those who shout out they love you
Will surely be the first to desert you
Those who talk of togetherness
Are waiting to draw their lines of division
What do you want from me
Don't tell me to be myself
Then hide and sit on the fence
For their own benefit
Their eyes are looking forward
To what they can get
What they can get
When you turn the other way
Those who claim they are with you
Will scatter as daylight approaches
There ain't no-one you can lean on
In this world the sickness is people
What do you want from me
Don't tell me you love me so
Then leave me to stand on my own
For their own benefit
Their eyes are looking forward
To what they can get
What they can get
When you turn the other way
For their own benefit
Can't remain beside you
And what they can get
What they can get
It's always ahead of you
And they crawl out of the woodwork
Bastards won't let me be
I don't know defeat
Whisper words of warning in my ear
Stir up fear
I must keep moving on
I know our time has come
For their own benefit
Their eyes are looking forward
To what they can get
What they can get
When you turn the other way
For their own benefit
Can't remain beside you
Cos what they can get
What they can get
It's always ahead of you
For their own benefit
Their eyes are looking forward
To what they can get
What they can get
When you turn the other way
