lyrics

The yellow dawn it shines upon
My still shut weary eyes
And just for that one moment
I still don't realize
How this human maze
Will soon invade my life
Its like a poison, seeping deeper now
I gotta get out and work to live today

Its such a shame
I can't lay out in the rain
Its given new life a chance to breath
Its given young minds the space they need to dream

I trade in my days
For spare change
I'm living in between
The spaces in between
I can't make a meal
Outta paper money
But with the seed and the soil
The sun and the rain's all I need

If you're too blind to see
Please hang up the phone and shut off the TV
We're running in circles, when life is our right
Let's cut out the middle man and let the earth provide
So we won't rely
On everything they want us to buy
Your money or your life
