LYRICS: ALL OUR YESTERDAYS

 

I've been losing my mind

Thinking I'd find something better

To this life of gold and letters

And love It don't seem enough

 

Have I been wasting my time

Living in my institution

Praying to my constitution

I want love

But it just don't seem enough

 

The book that you read you say teaches love and peace

But with that gun in your hand tell me how can you believe

I hear a dark son laughing

As we're falling to our knees

A new deal's struck but nothing's getting better

There's a static in the air but I feel it getting wetter

There's a changing tide

Save us, save me please

 

We live in a world of all our yesterdays

And this isolation is too high a price to pay

I know you're scared but soon we'll nowhere to run

C'mon, I can't be the only one

We talk of a time of sweet liberty

But with our brothers in chains tell me how can we all be free Hold out your hand or soon we'll have nowhere to run

C'mon, I can't be the only one

 

You've invaded my land

Searching for your final solution

Or do you call it divine retribution from above

From God

In the name of love

 

The book that you read you say teaches love and peace

But with that gun in your hand tell me how can you believe

I hear a dark son laughing

As we're falling to our knees

A new deal's struck but nothing's getting better

There's a static in the air but I feel it getting wetter

There's a changing tide

Save us, save me please

 

We live in a world of all our yesterdays

And this isolation is too high a price to pay

I know you're scared but soon we'll nowhere to run

C'mon, I can't be the only one

We talk of a time of sweet liberty

But with our brothers in chains tell me how can we all be free Hold out your hand or soon we'll have nowhere to run

C'mon, I can't be the only one

I can't be the only one

I can't be the only one
