[Verse 1] Every headline Another mask on a mask Same plane Same island Same list they stash They burn the folders But the stains don’t fade We see the patterns They just change the name You sell us justice Like it’s pay-per-view Gold-card courtrooms Closed-door truth They write a statement Then they write the script Handshakes Cameras And the charges slip [Chorus] I don’t want slogans I want names and numbers Every kid stolen Every voice pulled under Tear down your temples Built on broken lives I want names and numbers I want alibis [Verse 2] You preach “protect them” While you board that jet Smile for the photo Wipe the internet Million-page secrets All in tidy piles But the ones in power Never stand trial You call it “complex” I call it a lie You say “too tangled” While the guilty fly We see the circles You pretend aren’t there Same rings Same money Same vacant stares [Chorus] I don’t want slogans I want names and numbers Every kid stolen Every voice pulled under Tear down your temples Built on broken lives I want names and numbers I want alibis [Bridge] Turn on the lights Who’s left in the room? (hey!) Strip off the titles Read what they do You can bury the files You can shred the proof But you can’t unhear A child’s truth [Chorus] I don’t want slogans I want names and numbers Every kid stolen Every voice pulled under Tear down your temples Built on broken lives I want names and numbers I want alibis
