Julian Casablancas - Human Sadness lyrics

rate me

Ft. The Voidz

(Intro)

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, I'll meet you there

(Rumi)

Put money in my hand

And I will do the things you want me to

(Verse)

Vanity ovaridin' wisdom

Usually common sense

Should I delete it

You said you would read it

You promised u would neva ruin it with sequels

I wait for u on and on

(Chorus)

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field

I will be meeting u there

(Verse 2)

The moon’s a skull, I think it’s grinnin'

The room is full of people now I think it’s spinning'

Wanted u didn’t ask fo' nothin'

Wait for u on and on

And I don’t need ur tie, I don’t need to, tired of sayin' it

We don’t need more talk, don’t empty out ur canteen on the desert floor

Ahhh, it’s all my fault

(Verse 3)

Neva want to spell it out

I just want to say that it is all my fault

I could neva spit it out

I don’t want to fix ur tie

Neva want to say we’re sad

Thankful that we got some chance

I know u won’t get back ur time

I wish that u could take it back

(Chorus)

(Verse 4)

He wanted it more than me, I suppose

I was in a rush to wait in a line

Now I hear echoes of my old self

This is not the way to be

All at once, I lost my way

(Verse 5)

Is it not true, the things that we did?

Come here at once and look what they did

Come here shut down and tune in tonight

Learn the words that they teach u without u realizin' it

Come here sit down and watch some tv

Mine all mine wait ur turn

Cross my cross slice his hand

Not ur son not ur friend

Not ur enemy, I rely on the little things to get me by

Conscience says 'I’m ok'

You don’t hear what they say

'He’s not my son, search his home'

Off to war, it’s time to go hide inside

(Verse 6)

Soft skin, weak chin

Just walk me thru' it, tell me what to do I’ll do it

Hurry hurry, that’s my baby

Ohh, do what u can

All the time, he waits for me

And now we talk from time to time

Hits u on the head when nobody’s there

Then he says 'come here could u fix my tie?'

It’s neva goin' to be

To be is not the way to be

Show me where to go don’t get angry so quickly

Fuck depression

(Chorus)

(Outro)

Understandin' is mo' important than luv

If not money will always trump justice

All is lost

I’ll find my way

So I say

To be is not to be

To be is not the way to be
