Give, Give, Give

How can we take, take, take and not give, give, give?
How can we not forsake, the destructive life we live?

We Can't keep letting it thrive.
It'll take all thats sacred, just to survive.

We'll leave it at our childrens feet.
A pathetic, sensitive, dying treat.

Artificial light

I'm livin' in a one man pack. Never turnin' 'round, never lookin' back.
These things I do for money. It just ain't worth it honey.
A cog in that work machine. That massive greasy work machine.

Tell me there's light, at the end of this tunnel !
We built ourselves this dirty thing, just to make it through the rubble.

And please, tell me that light's the sun.

Heavy Rains are Comin'

Hey boy, how's the air up there ? It looks too good to be fair up there.
You work real hard to get by I hear.

My girl, how's the air up there ? It looks too soft, you'd fall through up there.
You work real hard to look good I hear.

Those heavy rains are comin'. For you and me my dear.
Those heavy rains are comin'. Comin' strong this year.

It'll wash away our life, 'til all thats standing, we know is right.
It'll wash away our might, 'til all we have, is that holy light.

Everything We See

With everything we have, you'd think we could be content.
Except everything we have, keeps us wanting more content.
Taking one step at a time, leaving what we once loved behind.

With everything we see, you'd think we could believe.
Except everything we see, keeps us wondering.
Taking one step at a time, keeping what we love in sight.

Living

People laughing, people crying... people dying.
People working, people lurking... people dying.
People singing, people screaming... people dying.
People eating, people drinking... people dying.
People sweating, people freezing... people dying.
People walking, people running... people dying.
People praying, people fighting... people dying.
People... Living.
