lyrics

Living, breathing human beings
Are crowding my periphery
In glorious passivity
I am surrounded
All of them have names and faces
Loving friends and close relations
Secrets kept in sordid places
Don't you tell a soul

Living, breathing human beings
Are sucking all my energy
With coughing fits a eulogy
Will be in order
With blame alive like crooked teeth
The gaps aflame with subtlety
And everyone including me
Is moving backwards

That single seed in soil sprouts and starts to reach
A little more, a little faith could explain everything
The final two, the count of three, the beat of four
I wouldn't ask for more

Living, breathing human beings
Are walking, running, hurrying
On paper routes and studying
We're so much smarter
Saddling our shoulder blades with
Useless facts and information
Building our own brand new nation
Let my people go

Living, breathing human beings
Are passed out in pools of anything
Drowned in words and cycling
Through cartoon movies
I remember everything
That anybody says to me
So I burn CDs to give for free

That single seed in soil sprouts and starts to reach
A little more, a little faith could explain everything
The final two, the count of three, the beat of four
I wouldn't ask for more
