Delta Spirit - People Turn Around lyrics
[Delta Spirit - People Turn Around lyrics]
They were fighting for freedom and
Just what is that?
Bills to the banks and food for the kids
Money for college but couldn't get in
Made all the grades but got taken to task
By a man in an alley wearing a mask
Screamed and she begged as
The people walked by the man
He just laughed and the woman she cried
Well, it's time all you people, turn around
For the life we've been living
Messing around the blood we've been spilling
Will bleed us dry
The life we've been killing is
Your life like mine
The needle is sweet and the snow it is pure
The pain I've been hiding from
I'm finding a cure the night it is warm
Well the light it is cold
The family I'm loving, I'm calling them home
It's time all you people, turn around
For the life we've been living
Messing around the blood we've been spilling
Will bleed us dry
The life we've been killing is
Your life like mine
My heart it is thumping
The veins they've been blue
The blood that's been pumping
It still hasn't met you
The beard that I'm growing, not fully grown
The years are not coming the
Way I thought they would
I'm hoping and waiting for something to sing
Like the angels in heaven
The bones on the street
Hoping for love to find a new voice
The song that needs singing has
Already been sung before
Well, it's time all you people, turn around
For the life we've been living
Messing around the blood we've been spilling
Will bleed us dry
The life we've been killing is
Your life like mine
Turn around for the life we've been living
Messing around the blood we've been spilling
Will bleed us dry
The life we've been killing is
Your life like mine
