Sit Me Down
Lyrics: Tim Arnett
(Verse 1)
Sit me down, I have too much to think about
Let it just unwind and figure itself out
We’re walking downtown, it feels like a fight to stay alive
Everybody in the world is trying to make it, so don’t claim to be perfect
(Verse 2)
Medicine, and Mary-Jane and needles are the colors
When painted on a blank canvas, they’re not so beautiful
But those are the colors, those are the images portrayed
We all need something, something bigger than ourselves to believe
(Chorus)
In a sad, sad world we are living
Take a look and you will see hypocrisy
In this hopeless world we are dying everyday
Everyone is hanging by a thread searching for a reason for life today
(Verse 3)
Don’t let us fight, segregation puts bullets in our heads tonight
We all scream for mercy
We’ve had enough, but who’s gonna have what it takes to say we’re done
We need something bigger than ourselves to believe
(Chorus)
In a sad, sad world we are living
Take a look and you will see hypocrisy
In this hopeless world we are dying everyday
Everyone is hanging by a thread searching for a reason for life today |
