lyrics

This is for the guys on the corner of Percy
The ones who gather up dust in the split artery of time
Where all existence is a fine, cruel and cowering line
And they're calling out for their mothers to help
And they're calling out for the government to help
And they're calling out for the gods to help
Just calling out for someone to help
But to be something is to be nothing
And to be nothing is to be free
So from the grids in the streets
Is where old men leap
With stories written on the soles of their shoes
Written by palms of hands that are fabled and bruised
While our mothers pour from the jaw of the used
And every human has its worth
But bated breath since birth
Only leads to the early dirt
Because without self love
Or reason to be heard
Were as good as a spluttering version of truths ....
