Switch Ghost – Human Beings lyrics
I can’t believe what I’ve seen
Done by human beings
An animal like a virus
And it doesn’t seem to learn a thing
I know that I’m small
But I can’t just do nothin’ at all
Should I burn your city down?
Or should I just walk away?
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I don’t know what part to play and that’s a shame.
What does it take
To get your head on straight
Talk talk talky talk talk talk
Nobody listens at all
What do we know?
If it leaves us no room to grow
Just wind up beatin’ the same old path
Till we end up where we was before
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I don’t how much more I’ll take
Did you hear what they say?
Lie straight to your face
For every nickel that you get
Somebody take ten away
When it’s all said and done
Is it worth the prize you won?
What did we end up losing,
Just so you could play the game?
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I’m busy diggin’ my own grave.
Tell me that I’m free
Free to do whatever you say
Free to trade my soul in
For a couple lousy pennies worth in gold
Monitor who you know
Better keep your thoughts controlled
They don’t have to tell you what to think
When they already told us all we know
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I don’t know what part to play and that’s a shame.
Done by human beings
An animal like a virus
And it doesn’t seem to learn a thing
I know that I’m small
But I can’t just do nothin’ at all
Should I burn your city down?
Or should I just walk away?
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I don’t know what part to play and that’s a shame.
What does it take
To get your head on straight
Talk talk talky talk talk talk
Nobody listens at all
What do we know?
If it leaves us no room to grow
Just wind up beatin’ the same old path
Till we end up where we was before
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I don’t how much more I’ll take
Did you hear what they say?
Lie straight to your face
For every nickel that you get
Somebody take ten away
When it’s all said and done
Is it worth the prize you won?
What did we end up losing,
Just so you could play the game?
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I’m busy diggin’ my own grave.
Tell me that I’m free
Free to do whatever you say
Free to trade my soul in
For a couple lousy pennies worth in gold
Monitor who you know
Better keep your thoughts controlled
They don’t have to tell you what to think
When they already told us all we know
I know we’ll never last much longer
Living in the same old way
I’d like to see some changes come faster
But I don’t know what part to play and that’s a shame.
