Ain't Up To Me
Love is louder than hate
But gimme something to listen to while I wait
Dark 'fore the break of day
But I can't see my hand in front of my face
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
Shepherds say they're takin' to the streets
Bought and paid for on the last dime of their sheep
We're not old, just close to the end
Walls run through our backyards we don't know why we defend
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
'Cause the way forward's clear we just can't see it from here.
Spin takes the place of truth
Takes a whole lotta tryin' just to get a message through
Everybody rides... where they should walk
Pay is good but time is short and the whole world's on the clock
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
Start now that it's too late
Hoarded it for yourself, now you talk give and take
Don't deal 'til the deck is stacked
Only give a tenth of what you get back
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
'Cause if you're looking to steer the back seat is right here
'Cause the way forward's clear we just can't see it from here
But gimme something to listen to while I wait
Dark 'fore the break of day
But I can't see my hand in front of my face
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
Shepherds say they're takin' to the streets
Bought and paid for on the last dime of their sheep
We're not old, just close to the end
Walls run through our backyards we don't know why we defend
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
'Cause the way forward's clear we just can't see it from here.
Spin takes the place of truth
Takes a whole lotta tryin' just to get a message through
Everybody rides... where they should walk
Pay is good but time is short and the whole world's on the clock
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
Start now that it's too late
Hoarded it for yourself, now you talk give and take
Don't deal 'til the deck is stacked
Only give a tenth of what you get back
It ain't up to me but if it was you'd see
'Cause if you're looking to steer the back seat is right here
'Cause the way forward's clear we just can't see it from here
