Stand up 
You know you have the right to 
Speak out 
For the things that you believe 
If you let them 
They will stab you in the back over again 
Take your integrity 

How long will you let this go on? 
They're drowning you in fear 

Speak up 
Your voice just isn't breaking through 
It's time now 
It's gone on way too long 
If you let them 
They will tear you into little pieces 
I think there's something wrong 

How long will you let this go on? 
They're drowning you in fear 
You're letting your hopes go straight to [bad word] 
and I know the end is near 

The time [bad word] 
The time [bad word] 
The time [bad word] 
You will be sorry for what you've done 
The time [bad word] 

How long will you let this go on? 
They're drowning you in fear 
You're letting your hopes go straight to [bad word] 
And I know the end is near, is near 

You say you're sorry for what it's worth
