Human Sadness

Put money in my hand
And I will do the things you want me to
Vanity, overriding wisdom
Usually, common sense
Should I delete it
You said you read it
You promised you would never ruin it with sequels
I wake for you, on and on

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong
There is a field
I will be meeting you there
The moon’s a skull, I think it’s grinning
The room is full of people
Now I think it’s spinning

Wanted you
Didn’t ask for nothing
Wait for you
On and on
And I don’t need your tie
I don’t need to, tired of saying it
We don’t need more talk
Don’t empty out your canteen
On the desert floor
Ah, it’s all my fault

Never wanna spell it out
I just want to say that it is all my fault
I could never spit it out
I don’t wanna fix your tie

Never want to say we’re sad
Thankful that we got some chance
I know you won’t get back your time
I wish that you could take it back
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong
There is a field
I will be meeting you there

He wanted it more than me, I suppose
I was in a rush to wait in a line
Now I hear echoes of my old self
This is not the way to be
All at once
I lost my way

Is it not true, the things that we did?
Come here at once and look what they did
Come here shut down and tune in tonight
Learn the words that they teach you without you realizing it
Come here sit down and watch some tv

Mine all mine
Wait your turn
Cross my cross
Slice his hand
Not your son, not your friend
Not your enemy

I rely on the little things to get me by
Conscience says, “I’m ok”
You don’t hear what they say
“He’s not my son, search his home”
Off to war
It’s time to go hide inside
Soft skin
Weak chin
Just walk me through it, tell me what to do I'll do
Hurry, hurry, that’s my, baby
Oh, do what you can

All the time, he waits for me
And now we talk from time to time
Hits you on the head when nobody’s there
Then he says, “come here could you fix my tie? ”
It’s never gonna be
To be is not the way to be
Show me where to go
Don’t get angry so quickly
Fuck depression
Beyond all ideas of right and wrong
There is a field
I will be meeting you there

Understanding is more important than love
If not money will always trump justice
All is lost
I’ll find my way
So I say
To be is not to be
To be is not the way to be
