Society of Broken Dreams by The Lamms


VERSE 1:

Am                   E                                 Am
Looking at the world around me Its hard not to feel despair
                       E                                    Am
Living like smacked up Zombies Insensitive and dont really care
                E                           Am
Where did it go wrong? Where has compassion gone?
                            E
These questions haunt me in my sleep
                         Am
In the society of broken dreams...

CHORUS 1:

Am         Em            Dm         Am            x 4
Society of broken dreams Society of broken dreams

VERSE 2:
 
Am                         E                                Am
Politicians with suits and smiles Looking dapper smarmy and flash
                 E                                 Am
Claiming to represent us then they go and nick our cash
                E                           Am
Where did it go wrong? Where has compassion gone?
                            E
These questions haunt me in my sleep 
                         Am
In the society of broken dreams

CHORUS 2

VERSE 3:

We look to the young to save us but fill their heads with irrelevance
Failing to show empathy walking around in a vacant trance
Where did it go wrong? Where has compassion gone?
These questions haunt me in my sleep
In the society of broken dreams

CHORUS 3

VERSE 4:

Maybe one day a revolution will bring around a mighty change
We will look up to artists and scholars rather than celebrities and others deranged
Until then we will live in a world that never gives
Only mankind can bring destruction
To the society of broken dreams

CHORUS 4
