Amos Lee - Jail & bombs

Tekst :

The one I love is lost without the least bit of explanation
Just goes to show the futility of self-preservation
Now all I seem to see is all this war, and goin amongst our nations
What good will it do

Now everybody wants to know the secrets to our salvation
Forever reading on and on, from Genesis to Revelation
Never stopping for a second to examine situations
After all that we ve been through

And love it only ends
When there s nothing left to defend
Will we ever see, yeah, yeah
The common bond of humanity
Go on...

Get a landscape of famine and also of frustration
And children walking round without the proper means to education
And still up there on Capitol Hill they re passing all this legislation
For jails and bombs

Still we live behind these hollow walls of lies and segregation
People walking round without the proper means to medication
And still up there on Capitol Hill they re passing all this legislation
For jails and bombs

Anybody out there can hear my prayer
Anybody out there can hear my prayer
Anybody out there can hear my prayer
Anybody out there can hear my prayer
Anybody out there can hear my prayer

    Get your gun

    Johnny, get your gun
    I m not afraid to die
    Johnny, get your gun
    For a suicide pact tonight
    Burning out with the Hollywood hopefulls
    Johnny, I m not your dying star
    Ultra violence
    Wrapped in cellophane
    Bound and gagged in the back of my car
    That cardboard cut out...

    (Yeah, look at you)
    Look at you
    You look fine
    How do you do
    Been a while since alone in your room (room)
    Been around, but haven t found
    No one like you (no one like you)
    Don t you know girl
    There s no one like you

    And you hear me
    Hear my emotions creep slowly
    Hear with your heart,...
