Going to the Court

lyrics

Claire woke up this morning
willing to fulfill her dream,
the husband she cares about
and the baby she cherishes.
She lives in a nice flat
for 20,000 bucks furnished.
She makes enough money everyday
to give some of it to the priest.

Kenny is living day by day
trying not to being killed,
incorporated by force
in that famous army.
So he slept every night
thinking of his beloved family,
praying for being back home at christmas,
that's one of his dreams.

Afraid of being guilty
afraid of what would be said
cause that would make no sense.
Afraid of loosing dignity
afraid of what would be said
cause that would make no sense.

Casey wanders at night
for a one shot of cocaïne.
She has no money to fullfill
the d-tox she would need.
She lives of roberies
hoping she won't get caught.
she doesn’t find any help
in the gloomy streets.

Chrisi slept outside
on a dirty couch,
being kicked out from her house
because she was becoming two.
So she sells her attributes
to some males she disapproves.
She can't afford both food and medicine.
What a pity, that’s not a dream.

Afraid of being guilty
afraid of what would be said
cause that would make no sense.
Afraid of loosing dignity
afraid of what would be said
cause that would make no sense.
