Josh Ritter - Spectral Lines

Someday

Missionary zeal
Mercenary eyes
The world puts its whole foot down
On the little guy
And grinds him on down
Back to the dust from whence he came
Someday there's gonna be justice
Will it be today?

The dark is too hungry
Nothing's ever quite enough
So throw both arms
Round the whole world
And the ones you love
Give them everything you have
From what cannot be repaid

Someday there's gonna be justice
Will it be today?

We who cannot get it right
We who try with all our might
To somehow push a mountain up a hill
We who are not deities
We who speak in blasphemies
We whose time has not yet come, but will

I've seen a whole lot, I remember
Things that I cannot forget
And if the world is getting kinder
I haven't noticed yet
And if we're gonna make it
Things are gonna have to change

Someday there's gonna be justice
Someday there's gonna be justice
Someday there's gonna be justice
Will it be today?

Will it be today?
