lyrics

I shouldn't be this sore at my age.
Everyone movin on, but we stay the same.
Maybe the sun will rise if we'd only open our eyes.
Maybe the moon will bloom.
It's like we're kicking in the womb.

I saw a man the other day
in the street he banging his drum and he prayed
to all the stars above.
He was wondering when the sky forgot about love.
When the sky forgot about love.
Forgot about love.

All the clouds, they started crying.
And the man in the street raised his hands,
he started dying.

I saw a woman in the store, she looking sweet but I know she's poor.
Got a mountain of debt that she ain't touched yet:
scholastic promise dropping like a bomb on us.
Eatin dust from the bones of our grandparents' jobs.
How'd we get so robbed?

We gave the crowns, all Saturn's rings,
to the heads of our empire, a snake with seven heads.
But heaven said, "severed heads ain't good to bring to bed.
Get it right in your heads, what were you thinking.
A snake with seven heads should be dead."
We can drown it with singing.
