Where I Come From

(앨범: Suitcase: Failed Experiments And Trashed Aircraft - 2000)

There's sense in arguing
If it's not something you believe in
Can't hope for knowledge, someones good advice
Don't have much money to lay around and grieve in
Better off just keep your mouth shut
Come on boys, be nice

You can't hurt me now
I don't know how to cry
But I'm still young

I see the outstretched arms that beckon me
But I can't come
I hear the spoken words that make no sense
Where I come from

Keep everyone happy with county recreation
Work fifty hours a week, take out frustrations on the field
Put lots of churches on every other corner
Hostile working conditions with much better yield

You can't hurt me now
I don't know how to cry
But I'm still young

I see the outstretched arms that beckon me
But I can't come
I hear the spoken words that make no sense
Where I come from

I feel the stinging truth
The slaps me hard and makes me numb
I eat the bitter fruit that grows on trees
Where I come from
