Letra de First Song, Part 2
Letra powered by LyricFind
I took the needle out of my arm about a year ago today
And every day since then I've been taking the needle out of my brain
So when I'm staring down at my hands I can't explain just what it is that I'm thinking of
And every day since then I've been taking the needle out of my brain
So when I'm staring down at my hands I can't explain just what it is that I'm thinking of
Except thank god that all my veins have to pump is my blood
And I've done you so much wrong I can't believe you would still talk to me
And I say so much bullshit I can't believe that anyone around me can breathe
I know that it's a little dramatic, but the word for not changing is "death"
So I'm getting better, my friends, but please don't hold your breath
And I met a man in rehab the first time, an organizer in prison
He lived in Chicago when the cops shot Fred Hampton, but he was just a kid back then
Justice doesn't flow from police guns; I'm reminded of that all the time
As long as there is a law, peace will be a crime
What the news calls economics, I still call it violence
If your god is a judge or a jailer, I'm still an atheist
But I try to have faith in the things that will happen; I get saved from myself when I do
So maybe "god" isn't the right word, but I believe in you
And I've done you so much wrong I can't believe you would still talk to me
And I say so much bullshit I can't believe that anyone around me can breathe
I know that it's a little dramatic, but the word for not changing is "death"
So I'm getting better, my friends, but please don't hold your breath
And I met a man in rehab the first time, an organizer in prison
He lived in Chicago when the cops shot Fred Hampton, but he was just a kid back then
Justice doesn't flow from police guns; I'm reminded of that all the time
As long as there is a law, peace will be a crime
What the news calls economics, I still call it violence
If your god is a judge or a jailer, I'm still an atheist
But I try to have faith in the things that will happen; I get saved from myself when I do
So maybe "god" isn't the right word, but I believe in you
