This Life Songtext
von Thumb

If we all stood up to be entirely us entirely free
How would our society survive itself eventually?
If we all stood up today to fight the wars inside our heads
How would our society be?
We′ll never be cause we restrict ourselves
Inside our heads we socialize ourselves
Until we're dead we′ll never be ourselves
And that's a fact cause we just can't see

This life to me is like a flower like a tree
You cut your roots you think you′re free
This life you′ll see is like a flower like a tree
If you cut your roots you will no longer be
Inside our heads, inside our heads


If we all came to agree to live our lives in harmony
To defy reality how would it change our destiny?
If we all were free to choose a way to win a way to lose
How would our society be?
We'll never be cause we restrict ourselves
Inside our heads we socialize ourselves
Until we′re dead we'll never be ourselves
And that′s a fact because we're so afraid

This life to me is like a flower like a tree
You cut your roots you think you′re free
This life you'll see is like a flower like a tree
If you cut your roots you will no longer be

We're born into this world to be another part of this society
With no room at all for us to be what we had hoped to be
We restrict ourselves inside our heads
We socialize until we′re dead
We can′t be free and that's a fact

This life to me is like a flower like a tree
You cut your roots you think you′re free
This life you'll see is like a flower like a tree
If you cut your roots you will no longer be
