[Intro: Dave Gahan]
"Alright, let's stay a little longer now."
[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
Condemnation, tried
Here on the stand with the book in my hand
And truth on my side
Accusations, lies
Hand me my sentence, I'll show no repentance
I'll suffer with pride
[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
If for honesty you want apologies
I don't sympathise
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
[Interlude: Georgia Lewis & Jordan Bailey, "Dave Gahan"]
Ooh "Alright!"
Ooh
Ooh
[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
Condemnation, why?
Because my duty was always to beauty
That was my crime
Feel elation, high
To know I can trust this fix of injustice
Time after time
[Chorus: Dave Gahan]
If you see purity as immaturity
Well, it's no surprise
If for kindness you substitute blindness
Please open your eyes
[Outro: Dave Gaham, Hildia Campbell & Samantha Smith]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh "Alright!"
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh "Come on!"
Oh, oh, oh, oh "Yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
