The Walking Wounded |
| We’re in the church house kneeling down |
| We’re in the subways underground |
| We’re in the bars and on the street |
| We drive a truck we walk a beat |
| We’re in the mills and factories |
| We make the steel we cut the trees |
| A thousand-yard stare, eyes of glass |
| But we will see you when you pass |
| We lost our homes, we lost our dreams |
| All our goals have turned into schemes |
| We hurt each other and ourselves |
| So after long, traumatic spells |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking wounded |
| We cried out from the deepest pit |
| But rise back up each time we’re hit |
| We fell from power and from grace |
| But resurrection’s in our face |
| We’re just like little girls and boys |
| We play with grown up toys |
| We never thought of sink or swim |
| My brother hurts me so I hurt him |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking wounded |
| Like a circle, round and round |
| We go up so we come down |
| We don’t explain or apologize |
| We pull the veil across our eyes |
| We see through your fake refrain |
| But we won’t let you see our pain |
| You may not know us but you will see |
| There are more than you’d believe |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking |
| We are the walking wounded |
