Human Sadness

[Intro] Put money in my hand And I will do the things you want me to [Verse 1] Vanity overriding wisdom Usually common sense Should I delete it You said you’d read it You promised you would never ruin it with sequels I wait for you on and on [Chorus] Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field I will be meeting you there [Verse 2] The moon’s a skull, I think it’s grinning The room is full of people now I think it’s spinning Wanted you… didn’t ask for nothing Wait for you on and on And I don’t need your tie, I don’t need to, tired of saying it We don’t need more talk, don’t empty out your canteen on the desert floor Ahhh, it’s all my fault [Verse 3] Never wanna spell it out I just want to say that it is all my fault I could never spit it out I don’t wanna fix your tie Never want to say we’re sad Thankful that we got some chance I know you won’t get back your time I wish that you could take it back [Chorus] [Verse 4] He wanted it more than me, I suppose I was in a rush to wait in a line Now I hear echoes of my old self This is not the way to be All at once I lost my way [Verse 5] Is it not true, the things that we did? Come here at once and look what they did Come here shut down and tune in tonight Learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it Come here sit down and watch some tv Mine all mine Wait your turn Cross my cross Slice his hand Not your son Not your friend Not your enemy I rely on the little things to get me by Conscience says “I’m ok” You don’t hear what they say “He’s not my son, search his home” Off to war It’s time to go hide inside [Verse 6] Soft skin Weak chin Just walk me through it, tell me what to do I’ll do it Hurry hurry, that’s my baby Ohh, do what you can All the time – he waits for me And now we talk from time to time Hits you on the head when nobody’s there Then he says “Come here could you fix my tie?” It’s never gonna be To be is not the way to be Show me where to go don’t get angry so quickly Fuck depression [Chorus] [Outro] Understanding is more important than love If not money will always trump justice All is lost I’ll find my way So I say To be is not to be To be is not the way to be
