Won't Stop Searching For You

Verse 1

Gas light

Flicker

Cold bench where I sleep

Five miles down

Passing the tents on the sidewalk

Same face on a white page

Taped to a pole

I’m still here

Waiting

Verse 2

Rain falls

Washing the ink

Those names on the list

They fly private

They trade our lives like gold

Your room is empty

While they sip wine

On taxpayer dimes

Evil

Lives in the hills

Safe behind gates

Watching us bleed

Chorus

I won’t stop searching for you

I won’t stop searching for you

They can hide the truth in the shadows

They can buy the judges and the laws

But a father never forgets

No a father never forgets

You are not a number

You are not a ghost

Post-Chorus

Where are you

Where are you

Where are you

Verse 3

Empty stomach

Aching

I see the memorials

Flowers rot by the curb

While the monsters walk free

They protect their own

Their secrets

Their hunger

Their greed

I have a car and a prayer

And a photo of you

When you were five

Chorus

I won’t stop searching for you

I won’t stop searching for you

They can hide the truth in the shadows

They can buy the judges and the laws

But a father never forgets

No a father never forgets

You are not a number

You are not a ghost

Bridge

The island is silent

The records are burnt

The politicians are smiling

The cameras are turned

I see the elite

I see the rot

I see the people they forgot

Give me my daughter

Give me my soul

Give back the children you stole

Chorus

I won’t stop searching for you

I won’t stop searching for you

They can hide the truth in the shadows

They can buy the judges and the laws

But a father never forgets

No a father never forgets

You are not a number

You are not a ghost

Outro

The world is moving on

Traffic won't slow down

People walk past the flyer

I'm still standing in the rain

I'm still standing

Still

Searching

Forgive me

I'm still looking for you

Searching

Looking

Always

Searching
