GnomesAmok

well i drive all day but i never go anywhere
i get high all day but i dont break the stratosphere
i have faith in the things i know to be true
like love is real and war is wrong and AC/DC rules

i dont believe in god but i believe in me and you
is that so wrong does that make me evil too?
i cant get paid to write a song that makes my heart feel good
but im rich while my conscious feels the way i know it should

your soul was not made to be
a slave to anybody
they say i dont swim fast enough
to keep up
with the current
but im content
to keep floating on
oh yea

because id rather sing myself into poverty
then make some blood money in the suffering
i love you if you share my conviction and i love you if you dont
im not the only one dreaming of someplace better to go

and if it makes you uncomfortable you know its real
if it gives you pins and needles thats how it should feel
i made a promise to davia that i would never give in
i mean to show her my humanity's worth believing in

your soul was not made to be
a slave to anybody
they say i dont swim fast enough
to keep up
with the current
but im content
to keep floating on
oh yea

your life has no destiny
but thats not so scary
they say i dont swim fast enough
to keep up
with the current
but im content
to keep floating on
oh yea

These are deep lyrics. I can imagine it being one of those chilled out songs, reggae style, the sort of thing you listen to outside in the evening. There was a lot of meaning in the words and the structure supported the lyrics well.

Lovely jubbly.

Tom.

Deep, like Tom said. Sorry for the late reply, but it is very good. It flows very well, and all in all is a good lyric.

and if it makes you uncomfortable you know its real
if it gives you pins and needles thats how it should feel
i made a promise to davia that i would never give in
i mean to show her my humanity's worth believing in

Best verse in my opinion, love the first two lines even more
