More Than This

When I'm up in court
 And they read my name out
 When I'm crying out all of my tears
 With no pennies to spend
 I'm late on the rent now
 And my kids go hungry
 For the 3rd time this week
 And I can't deny that
 The system keeps failing me
 Over again over and over again
 She said
 And I'm down on my knees
 And I'm waiting for
 I'm down on my knees
 And I'm praying for something to come that's
 More than this
 For the broken hearted
 From a broken home
 Let down on the breadline
 And this ain't the first time
 That my kids go hungry
 Did I mention that?
 The estate seems ugly
 You may think I'm a junkie
 I need to be able to put food on the table
 Working two jobs a week
 Just to keep paying my way
 She said
 And I'm down on my knees
 And I'm waiting for
 I'm down on my knees
 And I'm praying for something to come that's
 More than this
 If I make you believe
 That we're needing more
 And I wish you could see
 We need more than this
 ♪
 Still down on the breadline
 Should I mention that
 No food on the table
 Did I mention that
 And my kids go hungry
 And I mention that
 Over and over and over and over
 And I'm down on my knees
 And I'm waiting for
 And I beg and I plead
 And I'm living for
 Something to come that's
 More than this
 If I make you believe
 That we're needing more
 And I wish you could see
 That we're living for
 Something to come that's
 More than this
 The estate seems ugly
 You may think I'm a junkie
 I need to be able to put food on the table
