Men Without Lungs

Men without lungs
Can't talk the talk
Can't preach their politics
Can't run amok

Men without lungs
Can't tell a lie
Can't curse at girls
Or make them cry

Wouldn't it be nice if no one ever spoke?
Wouldn't it be nice if God would play this joke?

We're in need of absolution
Lady Justice wants our heads to roll
But this isn't the solution
We were meant to rise above it all

Men without lungs
Can't crush a dream
Can't throw a fit
Can't make a scene

Men without lungs
Can't bury hope
Can't fill their children's lungs up
With their dirty smoke

Wouldn't it be nice if no one wasted air?
Wouldn't it be nice if every word was fair?

We're in need of absolution
Lady Justice wants our heads to roll
But this isn't the solution
We were meant to rise above it all

We're in need of absolution
Lady Justice wants our heads to roll
But this isn't the solution
We were meant to rise above it all

Men without lungs
Can't sing their songs
Can't serenade
Can't speak of love

So I'll take the pain with the love
I'll take these paid games with what it lasts for
Man is worth this second chance, give us lungs

I'll take the pain with the love
I'll take these paid games with what it lasts for
Man is worth this second chance, give us lungs

I'll take the pain with the love
I'll take these paid games with what it lasts for
Man is worth this second chance, give us lungs

I'll take the pain with the love
I'll take these paid games with what it lasts for
Man is worth this second chance, give us lungs
