Thirty Pieces Lyrics


Thirty pieces of silver screen
Deep inside our souls
How did we betray our imagination
Watching our futures unfoldWithout a whisper for fear of intrusion
We have to see how this part ends
Time out for commericals
Time out to be good friendsYeah but our generation's angry
We're so scared that we can't see
The answer right inside of us
If we can find the place in our hearts where we're all freeWe're all free
Free
We're all freeDoes it see that time works against us
Or does it just march on and on and on
Sometimes it drives me crazy
Proving Nostradamus wrong, so wrongAnd but we still have secret silos
With buttons, codes and keys
We can avert this awful disaster
If we find the place in our hearts where we're all freeWe're all free

(We're all free)
We're all freeWhat a tall order
Far be it for me to say
Maybe I'll try a little harder
Starting here todayOr just throw in the towel
Laydown, give up the ghost
And join all the cynics
Luckier than mostMaybe I'll check out with a bullet
Would you think less of me
Or would it frighten you enough
Would it rattle you enough
Would it frighten you enough
To find the place in our hearts where we're all freeWe're all free
(We're free, free, free)
We're all free

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Edwin McCain (born January 20, 1970 in Greenville, South Carolina) is an alternative and indie rock guitar player. While his albums are released under his name, he does have a permanent band, referred to as the Edwin McCain Band. Members of the band as of 2007 include Larry Chaney, lead guitar; Pete Riley, rhythm guitar and background vocals; Craig Shields, saxophone and keyboards; Manny Yames, bass guitar; and Peter Alexander, drums.

After signing a contract with the Atlantic Records label Lava Records in 1994, his first major-label album, Honor Among Thieves, was issued in 1995. His second album, Misguided Roses, spawned I'll Be, a major single in 1998. Two more albums (Messenger and Far From Over) followed, but at the end of 2001, he split from Lava. In 2003 he released a collection of acoustic versions of songs both old and new called The Austin Sessions via ATC Records, a Nashville-based independent record label (at which McCain was the first artist signed following its creation in 2001). Mid-2004 saw the arrival of his first studio album in three years, entitled Scream & Whisper, which was released on another indie label, DRT Entertainment.

He has released two DVDs to date. The first was through ATC records in late 2002, called Mile Marker: Songs and Stories from the Acoustic Highway, and it consisted of interviews, live performances, and other material. The other was in late 2004, Tinsel & Tap Shoes. It was his first live concert DVD, recorded at The House of Blues in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

A new CD was released in April, 2006 titled, Lost In America. Edwin recently signed a contract with Vanguard Records. This album (#8) is said to be a true "rock 'n roll" collection.
