This temperature surge, they say it only gets worse
So you take in the coast while it's here
So I'm strewn 'cross the blanket, dreaming of spaceships
Praying a god will appear
They said all my life I ain't promised the sunrise
But I still made plans to see friends on the west side
If I didn't ask to be born why do I gotta prove to someone my right to be alive?
Give us a bed, give us bread, give us medicine
Give us a chance to prove we can be somethin'
♪
You stood 'neath the light at the top of the stairs
Said, "You keep all that worry down there"
You act so prepared, it takes one bastard scare
To know nothin' you get's really fair
All you control is the pace of your breathing
When you look like that, you don't make it that easy
We fought like hell for a life worth some meaning
When it all comes to end, just want you to be happy
Give us a bed, give us bread, give us medicine
Give us a chance to prove we can be somethin'
