Food for Songs (Live 2014)
Where those people hauling people
Out from under their homes
Yeah, there's people hauling people
Out through the groaning stones
You can see me tonight
I'll be shell-shocked and white in the cold light of dawn
But I ain't gonna cry just to give some guy
Food for songs
People going hungry
Stand like a sack full of bones
People going hungry
Feeding a billion homes
So, I put my dead child down
You put your TV on
But I ain't gonna die just to give some guy
Food for songs
Well, there's people beating people
To keep their system strong
Yeah, there's people beating people
To keep the illusion going
So, I'm going to fight every day of my life 'til they are gone
But I ain't gonna die just to give some guy
Food for songs
Yeah, there's people holding people
Making those wailing sounds
Yeah, there's people holding people
Watching them lower me down
So, I take my leave and you take what you see
And you make it what you want
But when I see you in hell, I will give you some
Food for songs
Out from under their homes
Yeah, there's people hauling people
Out through the groaning stones
You can see me tonight
I'll be shell-shocked and white in the cold light of dawn
But I ain't gonna cry just to give some guy
Food for songs
People going hungry
Stand like a sack full of bones
People going hungry
Feeding a billion homes
So, I put my dead child down
You put your TV on
But I ain't gonna die just to give some guy
Food for songs
Well, there's people beating people
To keep their system strong
Yeah, there's people beating people
To keep the illusion going
So, I'm going to fight every day of my life 'til they are gone
But I ain't gonna die just to give some guy
Food for songs
Yeah, there's people holding people
Making those wailing sounds
Yeah, there's people holding people
Watching them lower me down
So, I take my leave and you take what you see
And you make it what you want
But when I see you in hell, I will give you some
Food for songs
