There's a fire out on the street
Can't see police out on the beat
In a world of incomplete
For a sorry man
Rain puts out the fire
He was proven as a liar
Voting for the loudest crier
In a broken land
Riot riot police
Prophets of peace
Returning to your streets
In a broken land
I can see your lonely face
Filling out the weekend place
The thrill of the chase
For a sorry man
We all pay
All your way
Make you stay
In a broken land
Riot riot police
Prophets of peace
Returning to your streets
In a broken land
Riot riot police
Cleaning our streets
For hope we can't achieve
Like role models on TV
If it's broke
Do not fix it
Youthful world with plenty victims
We're failing with distinction
Abusing the system
Fighting with religion
In a broken land
Riot riot police
Prophets of peace
Returning to your streets
In a broken land
