Everybody Shatter
A-Town ’81 Your seeds on the street Just up and gone It’s the same song Downtown the air is bleak Cut the South Side off And let it bleed It’s the same song On Osage in ’85 They’re sure enough Gonna take you But not alive It’s the same song Got stopped in ‘21 But If they said your name You might live on It’s the same song The white crow in 19-4 Said “they’re gonna Bite back So that you don’t” It’s the same song Letras de cancionesOh lord A man done gone 14th and 5th The flag flies on It’s the same song Shape and Sound We forgot to fear Shut your еyes And shut your ears Scream and shout Try to drown it out But it won’t lеt You unhear it Shape and Sound We forgot to fear Shut your eyes And shut your ears We’ll revolve For a little while But we all Fall down in tears Dance I wanna dance I wanna dance into The After Until it comes to pass And like broken glass Everybody break down And shatter I wanna dance I wanna dance I wanna dance into The After Where everything You know And what you don’t Really won’t even matter We Shatter We all fall It’s a sign of the times We Shatter We all crack Trying to walk the line We Shatter We all fall It’s a sign of the times We Shatter And stay broke forever after Clapping your hands and You’re stomping your feet It’s the beginning of The end that you see So leave your intentions If you’re strapped At the door Cause the first time That you shatter There won’t be no more So let’s dance I wanna dance I wanna dance into The after Until it comes to pass And like broken glass Everybody breaks down And shatters Dance I wanna dance I wanna dance into The After Where everything you know And what you don’t Really won’t even matter We Shatter We all fall It’s a sign of the times We Shatter We all crack Trying to walk the line We Shatter We all fall It’s a sign of the times We Shatter We’re all broke forever after Too many of us shook There are constructs Put in place Intent on throwing us off Threaten the spiritual balance Until our mental focus is lost Overwhelming emotional challenges Feeding dread and despair Distraction to keep us from practicing things like active compassion Starving love And feeding hate Causing inhumane interactions To breed separation Not unification Because of Humanity’s actions This goes against Our nature Its inherently backwards So we imprison ourselves And don’t see we hold the key To the shackles The answers to all our questions In life that tend to be overlooked Lie within our grasp Yet will continue to pass As long as we shook From Letras Mania
