People Look Around 歌詞

The Mississippi River divides this land in two Like the way tend to think of things, black and white, red and blue If they can keep us fighting about marriage and god They'll be no one left to notice if our leaders do their jobs The truth is bigger than these drops of rain Falling The truth is bigger than these drops of rain Falling in the ocean Falling When the water is rising and there is no higher ground You can wave your hands up on the roof but you might be left to drown In the streets of New Orleans, a makeshift funeral pall "Here Lies Vera, God Help Us All" The truth is bigger than these drops of rain Falling The truth is bigger than these drops of rain Falling in the ocean Falling Jesus said "feed the hungry," Jesus said "help the poor" "Take care of each other, love one another" People look around, we let them down The Mississippi River flooded New Orleans And we stared in disbelief at our TV screens If they can keep us fighting another endless war How many tears before the truth cannot be ignored? The truth is bigger than these drops of rain Falling The truth is bigger than these drops of rain Falling in Lake Ponchartrain Falling in the ocean Falling
