Us of Lesser Gods

There's a breeze that's blowin' in from the land
Instead of salt air all we breathe in is sand
Crippled the cloud that once brought the rain
Good job, now we'll never see our coasts againBut those of us, those of us, us of lesser gods
Won't eat till we're hungry, won't drink till we're parched
But those of us, those of us who forget where we're from
Create now this hell where no devil could spawnTake me back, take me back
To the way life used to beA whisper's now sayin' what words used to speak
Starve must the child, hungry sex on TV
For no act of contrition will pardon the soul
The damage now glistens, see how it glowsBut those of us, those of us, us of lesser gods
Won't eat till we're hungry, won't drink till we're parched
Those of us, those of us who forget where we're from
Create now this hell where no devil could spawnTake me back, take me back
To the way life used to beYesterday is better than it is today
And today will be better, tomorrow they say
We don't want what you know but we know what we want
That's live and let live, we're all different that countsBut those of us, those of us, us of lesser gods
Won't eat till we're hungry, won't drink till we're parched
And those of us, those of us who forget where we're from
Create now this hell where no devil could spawnDark is the shallow man, proud without pride
Worn out comes the welcome from a truth that never lies
Weep now for the tear, cold on the face
So come down from your heaven, Lord
Let me show you hell on earthTake me back
To the way life's never been
