Verse: 1
Sitting here at a crossroad baby
Hoping for a sign to guide me maybe I should
Stop tryin to turn water into wine and
Start looking for some piece of mind
Verse: 2
We keep searching for the ultimate better
But lose ourselves in the long run whether it’s
Work or Cocaine we’ve all got an addiction,
We lose ourselves when we accept our convictions now
Chorus:
We fight wars for peace
And have sex for keeps
We sit in our schools listenin to
Someone else’s robotic rules
We try and stay alive
Through these harder times with these harsher minds
When all we want to do is
Just smell the roses
Verse: 3
Racin around like rats in a maze
Hopin for epiphanies within our daze
If it’s true what they say we see better when blind
Forget it all babe we should be seein all the time
Chorus:
We fight wars for peace
And have sex for keeps
We sit in our schools listenin to
Someone else’s robotic rules
We try and stay alive
Through these harder times with these harsher minds
When all we want to do is
Just smell the roses
Bridge:
You gotta find your inventor
And it might not be today
Can’t be caught under a shadow
Gotta lead your own parade
You’ll find that words that held such meaning
Like pride that held you in chains
Won’t mean much when life keeps turning
Cause words can always be erased
Chorus:
We fight wars for peace
And have sex for keeps
We sit in our schools listenin to
Someone else’s robotic rules
We try and stay alive
Through these harder times with these harsher minds
When all we want to do is
Just smell the roses
Just smell the roses
