Lyrics
Careless ways
Careless ways
These are dangerous days
Careless ways
How many nations, have weapons of war
Enough to destroy and deface
Leaders with tempers, and fragile resolve
Gamble with all of our fates
Codes in their hands, a future at risk
Power that no one should hold
Warning signs flash, but we turn away
Turning our backs, as a darkness takes hold
Careless ways, the cracks start to show
Careless ways, seeds of despair grow
These are dangerous days there's trouble in store
Careless ways no one cares anymore
The laughter of children, turned silent from fear
Innocence shattered like glass
Bullets and chaos, rip through the halls
Leave shadows of those who have passed
Halls that once echoed, with songs and joy
Now only whispers and stains
Each tear is a river, each name is a stone
On the shoulders of those left in pain
Careless ways, the cracks start to show
Careless ways, seeds of despair grow
These are dangerous days there's trouble in store
Careless ways no one cares anymore
Children alone, they roam through the streets
Seeking a place to belong
Dealers and gangs, sing a siren's refrain
A melody cruel and so wrong
Cycles repeating, mistakes of the past
Leaving scars that no one can mend
The hands meant to guide, are nowhere in sight
The streets become their only friend
Careless ways, the cracks start to show
Careless ways, seeds of despair grow
These are dangerous days there's trouble in store
Careless ways no one cares anymore
Lines have been drawn, the nation divides
Each side casting the blame
Voting for liars, for cheats and for thieves
Is blindness to risks of their reign
Democracy teeters, its pillars erode
An autocrat tightens his grip
The careless ways, of a fractured land
Could sink this American ship
Careless ways, the cracks start to show
Careless ways, seeds of despair grow
These are dangerous days there's trouble in store
Careless ways no one cares anymore
Careless ways no one cares anymore
Careless ways, the cracks start to show
Careless ways, seeds of despair grow
These are dangerous days there's trouble in store
Careless ways no one cares anymore
