Straylight Run - Who Will Save Us Now lyrics

Some of us are born, and then some of us are born again Some of us are scared to d**h, and some just don't believe in it Something's always wrong, there's a line, an idea I can't get behind No one knows what's right Some try, some just try to find a king, they sing Who will save us now? It's our life, but we don't want to live it We want to be told how By something or someone who's better than us Who we know we can trust Who will always protect us But keep us scared to d**h so we never ask questions Who'll dictate the consequences of our actions And give us peace of mind about our miserable lives Confined and content, all we want is a place we can hide We can hide So we've always fought our wars for what we're told is worth dying for Land and love and God and wealth But men in charge protect themselves You can rest a**ured It's the young and the poor who fought all our wars Led to d**h by men Who they chose and hoped would protect them And who will save us now? It's our life, but we don't want to live it And all you'll get is down 'Cause the people you elect to protect your best interest Will just protect themselves and all their investments And even the few with the best of intentions Will just push their views of what they think is right for you And everyone else, you can't think for yourself 'Cause you've chosen to let someone else do it for you For you So we're left to drift between our waking life and all our dreams Reality is relative and that's all the advice I'll give Life and d**h are hard They're such strange and complicated issues So listen, listen well for insight No one knows what's right for you And who will save us now? It's a wrong and irrelevant question 'Cause we've figured it out With the people who love us Who call us their brothers through lessons we've learned From our fathers and mothers, not looking for someone to bind our solutions To fight our own battles or show what truth is But working hard to find our own peace of mind Living and learning 'til we know what's right for our lives Our lives
