Tekst :
Living in the wasteland of the free...We got preachers dealing in politics and diamond mines
and their speech is growing increasingly unkind
They say they are Christ s disciples
but they don t look like Jesus to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
We got politicians running races on corporate cash
Now don t tell me they don t turn around and kiss them peoples ass
You may call me old-fashioned
but that don t fit my picture of a true democracy
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
We got CEO s making two hundred times the workers pay
but they ll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage
and If you don t like it, mister, they ll ship your job
to some third-world country cross the sea
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free
where the poor have now become the enemy
Let s blame our troubles on the weak ones
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free
We got little kids with guns fighting inner city wars
So what do we do, we put these little kids behind prison doors
and we call ourselves the advanced civilization
that sounds like crap to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
We got high-school kids running round in Calvin Klein and Guess
who cannot pass a sixth-grade reading test
but if you ask them, they can tell you
the name of every crotch on mTV
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
We kill for oil, then we throw a party when we win
Some guy refuses to fight, and we call that the sin
but he s standing up for what he believes in
and that seems pretty damned American to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free
where the poor have now become the enemy
Let s blame our troubles on the weak ones
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free
While we sit gloating in our greatness
justice is sinking to the bottom of the sea
Living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free.
Tekst :
Wewere born foreverWe are twinned in a fugitive mind
Friends should stay together and
Light the world with the fugitive kind
So you keep talking in many languages
Telling us the way you feel
Don t stop confiding in the road you re on
Don t quit, you re walking satellites
Walking satellites
She laughs satellites
A room filled with satellites
Ahh, walking satellites
We were born forever
Tunneled into the fugitive night
Friends must stay together
Code the world with the fugitive light
I just saw you walking
Ice was reading fortunes by the moonlight
casting runes on the rooftops and alleys
You ll never read it more than you will tonight
So you keep talking in many languages
Telling us the way you feel
Don t stop confiding in the road you re on
Don t quit, you re walking satellites
Walking satellites
She laughs satellites
A room filled with satellites
Ahh, walking satellites
Tekst :
The earth moved, the water ran freeThen lightning struck
We both knew it was meant to be
So we tried our luck
There was so much love, there was so much pain
In those stormy years
If I could just go back and do it all again
I d take away your fears
Chorus:
Ooh do you feel the way I do
When the stars come out at night
There s always you
Ooh do you feel the same pain too?
Now the scars have almost healed
I know it s true
I m not over you...
Now you ve gone and left a space
That s so hard to fill
I hope for you, you have found your place
and I guess I will
There s so many doubts going through my mind
Is this the way that s it should be?
People say that love is blind
Well I cannot see...
Chorus:
Ooh do you feel the way I do
When the stars come out at night
There s always you
Ooh do you feel the same pain too?
Now the scars have almost healed
I know it s true
I m not over you...
