I hate you
and love you
all at the same time
I’m sorry, I don’t mean to
but we tend to leave you behind
These hands were made for loving but all we do is fight
I wish we could combat the monsters inside
and love was made for people but people are filled with greed
we take what we want and expect it to be free
Now our hearts are empty, now our hearts are bare
but we still take what we want and expect it to be there
It’s just plain and simple, we lost everything
and now we can’t hear the song that human nature sings
It goes
Oh
save me
help me
Caged in this life we try to hide behind TV’s
it’s all about me
perpetuate the planet ’till it’s gone, and then we’ll have it
won’t we?
it’s all about me
These hands were made for loving but all we do is fight
I wish we could combat the monsters inside
and love was made for people but people are filled with greed
we take what we want and expect it to be free
Now the world is empty, now the world is bare
but we still take what we want and expect it to be there
It’s just plain and simple, we lost everything
and now we can’t hear the song that human nature sings
It goes
Oh
save me
help me
oh
oh
save me
help me
save me
help me
