Can I be mankind

from Shooting from the lip. ALBUM by tunnelmental

/

lyrics

Someone’s selling me something
To make me change again
Told me I’d be better off with
The pleasure and the pain
Just another ponzi scheme
Make me drop the dream
I’m trying to make a difference
You’re calling me extreme

You know that you can hurt me
Yet you keep on keeping on
Change comes from within
Sing a different song
You want this life of conflict
Know I just don’t care
Kick me when I’m down again
More than I can bare

Get the latest version
Better than the last
See into the future
Looking at the past
Sell me something worth it
Nail me to the mast
Stuck inside your nightmare
Spinning way too fast
Your spiral has gone viral
Your spin is just a lie
You blame the game
You chose to play
And I’m supposed to cry?

Now I’m at the crossroad
Time to roll the dice
Light me like a candle
Not a sacrifice
I’ll never be your savior
You will not be mine
Try a different flavor
Write another line
Close my eyes to see you
All inside my mind
Got a better version
Can I be mankind?
