I Been Down So Long
4
The sun sets across the ocean
5
I'm a thousand mile from anywhere
6
And my pocketbook in my heart
7
Both just got stolen
8
And the sun act like she don't even care
9
The wind blows cold when you reach the top
10
Feels like somebody's face is stuck to the bottom of my shoe
11
Got a plastic jesus, a cordless telephone for every corner of my room
12
Got everybody but you tellin' me what to do
13
Well I've been down so long
14
It can't be that much longer still
15
And I've been down for so long
16
That the end must be drawing near
17
I looked to everybody but me
18
To answer my prayers
19
Until I found an angel in the bathroom
20
Who said she didn't see anybody who was saving anywhere
21
And the blind man said, "Simple... like flipping a coin -
22
Don't matter what side it lands on
23
So long as it's somebody else's dime"
24
Cause if you're the top of the bottom
25
It all feels the same
26
We live out of fear if we're too rich or we're too poor
27
Guess all I can do is muster up some change
28
And a little bit of faith
29
And take some dignity when I walk through this door
30
Gonna take a trip
31
Catch a train
32
Got a ticket in my hand
33
And then a fat man takes my money
34
And like cattle we all stand
35
I'm just a faceless body lost in this vast and worthless sea
36
In a thousand people I do not know
37
But really they are no different from me
38
They all have passion
39
They all have fear
40
They all have intense confusion
41
And no sweet moments that are clear
42
They all have aspirations
43
High hopes and dreams
44
And are really that alone like me
45
We've been down so long
46
It can't be that much longer still
47
We've been down so long
48
That the end must be...
49
The end must be...
50
The end must be drawing near
