Blackball - Everybody Wants To Get Over It Songtexte

Everybody wants to get over it
But sometimes we can't
Everybody wants to get over it
But sometimes we can't
Well, the more we come together
The less I fall apart
When I can't seem to find my way out
Well, sometimes we can't

Guess I fell down today
had to call upon my brother
Guess I need to remember
That we just ain't made to stand up
On our own
If the mouth is representative
Of the heart of every other
Then tell me
Can I get a witness?
'Cuz the truth is that sometimes we can't

There is a distinct law of reciprocity
That what I do to you comes back to me
Guess I had to find the strength to see
That I'm not afraid to tell you that I'm wrong
I call out with my heart open wide
Just to see if we can make it to the other side
I was sad the day that forgiveness died
but the truth is that sometimes we can't

I'm going away
I'm finding my place where the sun shines
Just ask me I'll say
I said I'm going away
I'm going away
I'm leaving the past where it should be
No matter what they say
One day I'm going away

There's an example written down in the good book
And if you have the time, just take a look
And you can find a way to rise above it all
Just to free your mind and ease your aching heart
The truth is it does more good for me
To set all my brothers and sisters free
Than holding them down could ever be
And the truth is that sometimes we can't
