lyrics

I wonder can you heal the world with poetry
All those bleeding hearts
They make a sound when they hit the floor
I’ll help you fight out common enemy
If you can tell me definitively
What it is you’re fighting for
You hate the face of industry
Say it’s sucking souls from the youth and
Fuelling so much fear and insecurity
But if it’s all the same to you then
I will keep on walking down the main street
Those flashing lights don’t really bother me
No I’ll keep on walking down the main street
Those advertisements they are lost on me

Yeah I’ll keep on my way
I promise I will smoke all the profits
I’ll come out worse than when I started
I’ll keep on my way, keep on my way,
I’ll smoke all the profits and I’ll throw the rest away

And if the pills they gave you don’t keep your head straight
You can blame your fucked up life on the doctor
It would be nice to be like you
Absolved of responsibility for the life you lead
I would like to burn all the politicians
But in truth I have lost faith in anarchy
Because of people just like you
And your made up diseases

So I’ll keep on my way
Now we’re living in this world
So much like science fiction
Love your profile, change your picture
I’ll keep on my way, keep on my way
I’ll smoke all the profits and I’ll throw the rest away

So if you’re hearing what I say
Then pick up all your self-respect and be on your way
Listen to your own, just your own
Forget about what they say

So I’ll keep on my way
You can find your way to martyrdom
With a big old gun
And a front page headline
Saying look what they have done
I’ll keep on my way, keep on my way
I’ll smoke all the profits and I’ll throw the rest away
