Shout from on top of the steeple
Shout from the tops of them trees
I feel a badness blowin on the breeze
Showin no sign of stoppin
Dust in the cuts in my knees
And sympathy no longer breeds with ease
And the watchers keep on watchin
And the doers keep on doin it to me
And I just had to tell you
I just had to make sure everyone knows
They're fighting in the streets again
Still trying to save their souls
And were supposed to be human
We're supposed to have figured out the world
And found something we can believe in
At least that's what I have heard
So keep on pilin your money
Pile it up to the sky
Then you can climb it to Jesus
You know he loves a man that tries
So come on darlin take shelter
I see that moon on the rise
Salvation's for sale and hates the currency that buys
And the watchers keep on watchin
And the doers keep on doin it to me
And were supposed to be human
We're supposed to have figured out the world
And found something we can believe in
At least that's what I have heard
Well they say it's just the way things go
But I know that love will grow
And sometimes it goes the other way too
And I can see into my brothers heart
I can see beneath his skin so dark
I can see that he's the same as me
I can see that when you cut he bleeds
Can't you see that when you cut we bleed
Can't you see that when you cut we bleed
Can't you see that when you cut we bleed
And I just had to tell you
I just had to tell you
I just had to tell you
I just had to tell you
