Flesh Lyrics

Here in this night
In the darkest of hours
I feel a cold wind that tells
Of a storm front drawing nearIt speaks of greed and of hunger
Of envy and dread
Tells of the anger and hate
That arose from the fearWho said life's easy
Who said life's fair
Who said good luck will be with those who dareTo follow their heart, and not follow their fear
And if the good all die young
Then who are all those still hereTake a look around you
See what you've got
You just see what you don't have
And of that you still have a lotThe sky is the limit
The sky's not enough
The tough keep going
Not only when the going gets roughIt seems we all
Don't worry much

About what is happening
Left and right of usBut even if I try my hardest
Not to care
One question remains
And I'd like to hear your answerActing on target
At robotic speed
Recklessly feeding
Your robotic needsNo minute wasted
Emotions refused
Your brain's exploited
Your heart remains unusedIt seems we all...Name your price
How much is it to buy your loyalty
I'll do so, if I can affordName your price
How much do you charge to show remorse
To throw your indifference overboardWon't you once
Think just a little while about
What you will leave behind
When you deceaseWon't you once
Just once be good for something
Good for someone
Good for yourself at leastHere in this night
In the darkest of hours
I feel a cold wind that tells
Of a storm front drawing nearIt speaks of greed and of hunger
Of envy and dread
Tells of the anger and hate
That arose from the fearWho said life's easy
And who said life's fair
Who said good luck will be with those who dareTo follow their heart not their fear
And if it's hope that dies last
Why do all us hopeless still liveBrother kills sister
Father kills son
Religion kills reason
Reason becomes undoneThe end always
Justifies the means
Just running a program
Rooted deeply in our genesIt seems we all...Name your price...I have no faith
In a God above
But if I had
Then this would be my prayer:Oh Seven Seas
Raise all your waves
And take this Flesh back home
