I've got to say this outloud
It's a shame what they've done to her
These men who walk around proud
Don't give a damn who they hurt
She's been pushed to the ground
For way too long.

We've had enough
Now they're playing with an atom bomb
Standing hand in hand we're growing strong
Been treated like a ghost in the daylight for the very last time

Some me are filthy with power
For them everyone's just a play thing
They see all life as a game
But she's sick and tired of playing
They live by force and control
But her spirit's strong

We've had enough
Now they're playing with an atom bomb
Standing hand in hand we're growing strong
Been treated like a ghost in the daylight for the very last time

When will you say you believe?
When it's your mother who says #metoo?
When will you say you believe?
When your sister comes to talk to you?
When will you say you believe?
When your daughter is too scared to tell the truth?
Will you only believe when it happens to you?

We've had enough
Now they're playing with an atom bomb
Standing hand in hand we're growing strong
Been treated like a ghost in the daylight for the very last time
