| i sacrifice myself for you
|
| all the things that i say and do
|
| have got to be true
|
| now I’m jet lagged once again from tour
|
| playing show after show that i got to endure
|
| i know i make a living for the pain that’s for sure
|
| but what i used to do for the love is now a chore
|
| and i justify the pain and the money in my brain
|
| for the blood sweat and tears that
|
| i shed for this game
|
| but in the beginning i only did it for the change
|
| coins in my hat is how i paid my way
|
| from city to city street to stage
|
| i had the stamina to rock all night and all day
|
| with a mic in my hand and pedals at my feet
|
| feeding off the universal love energy
|
| but at my own pace not living in one place
|
| i could choose my holidays living in my suitcase
|
| charged by the bass pulling a screw face
|
| singing out my heart while rocking the place
|
| i sacrifice myself for you
|
| all the things that i say and do have got to be true
|
| it’s time for change in this
|
| super scary visionary life
|
| it’s like a cage so i salute the
|
| way i rearrange my mind
|
| we all embrace the spoon we are
|
| fed the merry love to consume
|
| we love the cheese so i bring my
|
| heavy groove into the night
|
| we all raging staging lonely heart breaking
|
| money money wasting brain dead nation
|
| and it’s funny to me that it’s plain to see
|
| that we listen to he thee and she
|
| but i roll on and keep my distance
|
| always looking backwards
|
| searching for brilliance around me
|
| now i do see the true me
|
| slip down the side living
|
| wide you can school me
|
| teach me everything i never ever knew
|
| what’s inside of me what’s inside of you
|
| what’s inside a nationwide
|
| human tide suicide
|
| is it justified? |
| not really don’t be silly
|
| but it’s just a cleanse go and
|
| tell your friends
|
| go and grab a pen we all depend
|
| on mineral spiritual lyrical material
|
| physical cynical clinical they’re really cool
|
| agh hell come and grab it
|
| it’s only on this planet i don’t understand it
|
| just follow the rabbit and get into the habit
|
| you don’t have to walk man you know
|
| that you can cab it
|
| but it’s all fine just get on this timeline
|
| do you see the side line or is it just the skyline
|
| i just do what seems tight and feels right
|
| and for that I’m gonna sleep well tonight
|
| i sacrifice myself for you
|
| all the things that i say and
|
| do have got to be true
|
| i feel like I’ve had about a thousand lives
|
| but all i am is an infinite reflection
|
| i feel like I’ve seen about a million skies and
|
| understand its an intimate connection
|
| i feel like I’m fed about a billion lies and
|
| the source is a literate infection
|
| my soul connects within the deepest of eyes
|
| for a wise and a moderate injection
|
| let us walk this land with an open mind
|
| let me take your hand and
|
| together we can find
|
| a pure reason to be loving and kind
|
| shut your eyes and let your soul unwind |
