people

songs

people, pompous and profane

pious, pride and shame

hypocrisy is paid with fame

it's always been the same

and they said

"join the cult or go insane"

 

you could save me from myself

or save me from breaking down

i swear i'm stupid, can't you tell?

i tried to be profound.

you could save me from being used.

i'm tired of this game.

oh, all i wanted was the truth,

i didn't ask for pain.

 

people, hey, have you heard enough?

all you need is love;

one word we've lost the meaning of.

won't you call my bluff?

(start by giving up.)

Wow!

There is an extra and fine verse on the "cloud" account - I like that version too.
