Lyrics

(Gary moore/neil carter)
Look around across the nation
Another league of morons marching
Banners in hand
Looking for another scapegoat
Try to take away the things they don't understand

Somewhere in the darkness
There's a voice that's crying to be heard
You feel it deep inside you
A voice that just won't be denied

Speak for yourself
Someone will hear you
Someone will listen
Speak for yourself
Who knows, you might change your world

They try to take away your freedom
They try to tell you what you can
Or what you can't hear
Don't let this moral suffocation
Make you turn out just like them
Is that what they fear?

Somewhere in the darkest night
A voice that's crying to be heard
You hear it deep inside you now
A voice that just won't be denied

Speak for yourself
Someone will hear you
Hear what you're saying
Speak for yourself
Who knows, you might change your world

They never listen to a word you say
They always turn their backs and walk away
Well, take a look at yourself now, baby
Take a look at yourself
Take a look at the things you should have done
It's up to you

Speak for yourself
Someone will hear you
Someone will listen
Speak for yourself
Someone will hear you
Out in the darkness

Speak for yourself
Someone will hear you
Someone will listen
Speak for yourself
Who knows, you might change your world
You might change your world
Speak for yourself
