everybody
Well there is valleys of fire
and walls so damn high
Tears of the falling angels
Wanting to touch the sky
Well there are a million starving
And some too damn full
Crying themselves to bitter sleep
Laying around against a wall
Everybody wants to smile
Everyone wants some peace
sometimes we try so hard
We end up on our knees
Well we sometimes just sit and wait
but it won't come
Sometimes we want to give it all
the heart numbs
Well we all can blame the big book
But it's us
For It is us who is human
Looking for trust
Everybody wants to smile
Everyone wants some peace
sometimes we try to hard
and we end up on our knees
the time we have together
can never last
if we can just let go
Let go of our past
and walls so damn high
Tears of the falling angels
Wanting to touch the sky
Well there are a million starving
And some too damn full
Crying themselves to bitter sleep
Laying around against a wall
Everybody wants to smile
Everyone wants some peace
sometimes we try so hard
We end up on our knees
Well we sometimes just sit and wait
but it won't come
Sometimes we want to give it all
the heart numbs
Well we all can blame the big book
But it's us
For It is us who is human
Looking for trust
Everybody wants to smile
Everyone wants some peace
sometimes we try to hard
and we end up on our knees
the time we have together
can never last
if we can just let go
Let go of our past
