Lyrics
This is a snippet of some of the lyrics to the single. For the full lyrics from Skin\'s (the lead singer) official site, see here
Verse 1
Why do I sense, benevolence
You stand tall at my great expense
Thick words of gratitude, what a price to pay
Stuck in my throat, I sell every word I say
Chorus
But I don\'t want your charity
Twisting me round
I don\'t want your charity
Keeping me down
