i once saw a man on fire
just staring out his window
watching as the flames grew higher and higher
i thought that i saw him cry
or was he only laughing
as his life [bad word] on
and maybe were just like him
maybe were all waiting
for our moment to begin
who of us are open
who of us have freedom really
who of us can tell what these dark days will bring
all of us are hurting
all of us are crazy now
all of us are watching the world as it spins

i once had a bird like you
a bird of prey
still youre tearing at my insides
and yesterday when you flew so far away
if you find the morning save a piece for me

who of us are open
who of us have freedom really
who of us can tell what these dark days will bring
all of us are hurting
all of us are crazy now
were crazy now

ill smoke the cigarette
ill eat the flesh instead
another whisky more or less or more or less
i like the [bad word] that sail
i love you when we fail
when we fail

all of us are hating
all of us are dreaming
all of us are watching these times of our lives
we want it all
we want for nothing
for nothing now
