There's a breeze that's blowin' in from the land
|
Instead of salt air all we breathe in is sand
|
Crippled the cloud that once brought the rain
|
Good job now we'll never see our coasts again
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But those of us, those of us
|
Us of lesser gods
|
Won't eat till we're hungry
|
Won't drink till we're parched
|
But those of us, those of us
|
Who forget where we're from
|
Create now this hell where no devil could spawn
|
Take me back, take me back
|
To the way life used to be
|
|
A whisper's now sayin'
|
What words used to speak
|
Starve must the child, hungry sex on TV
|
For no act of contrition
|
Will pardon the soul
|
The damage now glistens
|
See how it glows
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But those of us, those of us
|
Us of lesser gods
|
Won't eat till we're hungry
|
Won't drink till we're parched
|
But those of us, those of us
|
Who forget where we're from
|
Create now this hell where no devil could spawn
|
Take me back, take me back
|
To the way life used to be
|
|
Yesterday is better than it is today
|
And today will be better than tomorrow they say
|
We don't want what you know
|
But we know what we want
|
That's live and let live
|
We're all different that counts
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
But those of us, those of us
|
Us of lesser gods
|
Won't eat till we're hungry
|
Won't drink till we're parched
|
But those of us, those of us
|
Who forget where we're from
|
Create now this hell where no devil could spawn
|
Take me back, take me back
|
To the way life used to be
|
|
Dark is the shallow man
|
Proud without pride
|
Worn out comes the welcome
|
From a truth that never lies
|
Weep now for the tear
|
Cold on the face
|
So come down from your heaven lord
|
Let me show you hell on earth
|
Take me back
|
To the way life's never been
|
