Threads Songtext
von Barefoot Truth

Sitting there on the edge of the curb
The people on the street just pass with no words
Oh come on let′s observe the modern day marvel
Oh it's just the human kind
Passing on by have you not learned a lesson
Jesus saved the weak and weary from the grips of oppression
Are you waiting for your chance to make your confession
I know it puts you in a peace of mind

′Cause we're all just prisoners in these thoughts we can't escape
Lately I don′t know if I′m a student or I'm awake
Oh I hope I get this all out tonight
Before my train of thought runs off the page
My thoughts meander I think I′m asleep at the wheel again


I seem close to a world not even second but third
How do you class the classes with a number not a word
A place where bombing on the street's a likely to occur
So ah come on people I′m asking why
So pick up your own piece of the thread start today
Only matter what you do don't matter what you say
One time for the mothers the brothers the fathers the daughters
Who won′t let them be left for dead no no

You see we're all just prisoners in these lives we can't escape
Lately I can′t bear there any more for them to take
Oh I hope I get this all out tonight
Before they cover me up with a yellow tape
Oh but once the truth is out
Let it be spread all over the place

Pick up your own piece of the thread
Only matter what you do don′t matter what you said now
Pick up your own piece of the thread
Only matter what you do don't matter what you said now
Nobody should ever be held back
Or living off what other people throw back
Something always make me wanna hold back
We got to find the love to overcome


Nobody should ever be held back
Or living off what other people throw back
Something always make me wanna hold back
We got to find the love to overcome
Got to find the love to overcome
I said we got to find the love to overcome
Yes we got to find the love to overcome
You know we got to find the love to overcome
Got to find the love to overcome
Yes we got to find the love to overcome

Got to find the love to overcome
Oh we got to find the love to overcome
