It was always enough

My father was broken, like the rest

And I can still see his hands

Signing over his lands

And the bankers grow fat on the flesh of the dispossessed

Certain things that you depend upon

There are places I can go

Seem so distant and estranged

Have their eyes become too blind to see

How much their hearts have changed (how much their hearts have changed)
E
How much their hearts have changed
