in time and space

and you broke me
[Verse 3]

You were walking

round naked with

with no sins to pardon

A
All the money junkies
E
are running out of veins
Bm
If you’re one of them yourself
you’ve got no one else to blame

You don’t need anymore

then you have except the shame
Bm
of feeling torn

between the hungry and the greedy

the honeyed and the needy

Slaves have grown accustomed

to the weight of your chains

your eyes will find the silence

inside the hurricane

other than complain

We’ll pray for mother earth,

these are not more labour pains

Maybe you’re being born

The genius of belief, is that we must
D A E
take a chance sometimes on us
