Come and sit,
take the load off
Talk with me a while
Community is common pain,
common joy and offered time
We don't have to agree on
everything
You learn something from me and
I learn something from you
We all have a story and
a past we lived through
And I think it's kind of beautiful
We were born for the struggle
We were born for the pain
Eve ate the apple and I did the
same
We're so busy capturing and
Broadcasting moments
that we do not live it
So consumed with the playback of our
Lives that we don't know we are not in it
Put down the camera and look
me in the eye
There's so much for,
so much for the myth of pro gress
Seems to me is still about
who buys the mostest
While the pigeon holders
hold it back our time
We were born in for the struggle
We were born in to the pain
Eve ate the apple and I did the same
We are, who we are... If we are on it
Oh Abraham,
we are the stars you were promised
I wanna feel something real even
if it's hard
Like facing the gap between
the people we
Wanna be and the people we are
See you and I we're not so
different
Think is time I sit and sail
from disillusion into hope
Take that big big river in my small
small boat
Show myself in that all darkness, all darkness
We were born for the beauty
for the poetry of pain
Surely a sparks is far upward from a flame
Eve ate the apple and I did the same
