| Some of us are born
|
| And then some of us are born again
|
| Some of us are scared to death
|
| And some just don’t believe in it
|
| Something’s always wrong
|
| There’s a line
|
| An idea i cant get behind
|
| No one knows whats right
|
| Some try
|
| Some just try to find a king
|
| They say
|
| Who will save us now
|
| It’s our life
|
| But we don’t want to live it
|
| We want to be told how
|
| By something or someone
|
| Who’s better than us
|
| Who we know we can trust
|
| Who will always protect us
|
| Keep us scared to death
|
| So we never ask questions
|
| We’ll dictate the consequences of our actions
|
| And give us peace of mind about our miserable lives
|
| Find it content all we want is a place we can hide
|
| We can hide
|
| Someone always fought
|
| You can rest assured
|
| It’s the young and the poor who fought all out wars
|
| Led to death by men who they chose
|
| And hoped would protect them
|
| Who will save us now
|
| It’s our life but we don’t want to live it
|
| And all you’ll get is down
|
| Cause the people you elect to protect your best interests
|
| Will just protect themselves and all their investments
|
| And even the few with the best of intentions
|
| Will just push their views on what they think is right for you
|
| And everyone else, you can’t think for yourself
|
| Cause you’ve chosen to let someone else do it for you
|
| So we’re left to drift between our waking life and all our dreams,
|
| Reality is relative,
|
| And that’s all the advice I’ll give.
|
| And that’s all the advice I’ll give
|
| Life and death are hard
|
| They’re such strange and complicated issues
|
| So listen listen well
|
| For insight
|
| And no one knows what’s right for you
|
| Who will save us now
|
| It’s a wrong
|
| And irrelevant question
|
| We figure it out
|
| With the people who love us
|
| Who call us our brothers
|
| Through lessons we’ve learned
|
| From our fathers and mothers
|
| Now looking for someone to find our solutions
|
| To fight all our battles
|
| Or show us what truth is
|
| By working hard to find our own piece of mind
|
| Living and learning till we know what’s right for our lives our lives |
