Lyrics
Words have power Words have consequences Spoken in anger Under any circumstances A culture war A moral panic Something distasteful Using words Espousing hatred Careless and wasteful You think you're funny It was witty in your head Is it still funny Now someone's lying dead An innocent life A cold body lies still Words have power Power word kill You should know better Under the circumstances Your words have power These are the consequences Hand-wringing Soul searching You laid the foundations Heightening danger For the vulnerable Across the nations You think you're funny It was witty in your head Is it still funny Now someone's lying dead An innocent life A cold body lies still Words have power Power word kill Say their name Say their name Say their name Say their name Say their name Say their name A culture war A moral panic Something distasteful Using words Espousing hatred Careless and wasteful You think you're funny It was witty in your head Is it still funny Now someone's lying dead An innocent life A cold body lies still Words have power Power word kill Say their name Say their name Say their name Say their name Say their name Say their name
