Blues Traveler - Onslaught lyrics
Music: Sheehan/Popper Lyrics: Popper . Lies, well they're OK...more elaborate every day Truth well it's here too...What can you make it do for you? Greed it's just a drive...Do what you can to stay alive Peace, it's just a dream...so rock and roll and kick and scream . Now won't you tell me if you like what you've just heard? And if you think the point I'm driving at absurd Well there's no need to tell me how or tell me why But I need to know the reason not to try Cause if you look around you might just feel like me And you might notice no one was ever really free And maybe, just maybe for now that's how it's supposed to be Could be so far we've only earned the right to barely see . The poison has infected you...have no fear I'm infected too War they come and go...no telling where the wind will blow Pain was always there...sad reminder that you care Hate, the price you pay...for thinking you got the only way . Now won't you tell me if you like what you've just heard? And if you think the point I'm driving at absurd Well there's no need to tell me how or tell me why But I need to know the reason not to try Cause if you look around you might just feel like me And you might notice no one was ever really free And maybe, just maybe for now that's how it's supposed to be Could be so far we've only earned the right to barely see Barely see, barely see, barely see, barely see, let's see... . For your parents Ellis Island, what had they gone through? And if you descend from the Mayflower, well they were running too They were running from England, they were warring with France Who would conquer Spain given half a chance But it was the Muslims who had gotten there first When there wasn't the bloodshed then there was the thirst And a hate for the Christians, the infiltrators of Rome You know that once mighty empire who made Africa home The poor noble Egyptians, oh the hardships they braved Remembering the good times, with Judea enslaved And the Israelite nation, the very children of God Killing Palestine's children, and I'm finding it odd The Earth, a piece of fruit, don't blame the maggots when they loot Life's just a game we play, try to live just one more day Space, our final hope...throw the drowning man a rope The choice is for us to say, completely change or fade away. . Now won't you tell me if you like what you've just heard? And if you think the point I'm driving at absurd Well there's no need to tell me how or tell me why But I need to know the reason not to try Cause if youlook around you might just feel like me And you might notice noone was ever really free And maybe, just maybe for now that's how it's supposed to be Could be so far we've only earned the right to barely see . I really couldn't say for sure Like everyone else I know I'm just looking for the cure |
