《Not So Soft》歌词

[00:00:01] In a forest of stone

[00:00:02] Underneath the corporate canopy

[00:00:03] Where the sun

[00:00:04] Rarely

[00:00:04] Filters

[00:00:06] Down

[00:00:07] The ground

[00:00:08] Is not so soft

[00:00:09] Not so soft

[00:00:12] They build buildings to house people

[00:00:14] Making money

[00:00:14] Or they build buildings to make money

[00:00:17] Off of housing people

[00:00:18] Its true

[00:00:18] Like a lot of things are true

[00:00:20] I am foraging for a phone booth on the forest floor

[00:00:23] That is not so soft

[00:00:25] I look up

[00:00:26] It looks like the buildings are burning

[00:00:27] But its just the sun setting

[00:00:30] The solar system calling an end

[00:00:33] To another business day

[00:00:35] Eternally circling signally

[00:00:37] The rythmic clicking on and off

[00:00:39] Of computers

[00:00:40] The pulse

[00:00:41] Of the american machine

[00:00:43] The pulse

[00:00:44] That draws death dancing

[00:00:47] Out of anonymous side streets

[00:00:48] You know

[00:00:49] The ones that always get dumped on

[00:00:51] And never get plowed

[00:00:53] It draws death dancing

[00:00:55] Out of little countries

[00:00:56] With funny languages

[00:00:58] Where the ground is getting harder

[00:00:59] And it was

[00:01:01] Not

[00:01:01] That

[00:01:01] Soft

[00:01:02] Before

[00:01:05] Those who call the shots

[00:01:06] Are never in the line of fire

[00:01:09] Why

[00:01:10] Where theres life for hire

[00:01:11] Out there

[00:01:12] If a flag of truth were raised

[00:01:14] We could watch every liar

[00:01:15] Rise to wave it

[00:01:17] Here

[00:01:17] We learn america like a script

[00:01:19] Playwright

[00:01:20] Birthright

[00:01:20] Same thing

[00:01:21] We bring

[00:01:22] Ourselves to the role

[00:01:24] Were all rehearsing for the presidency

[00:01:26] I always wanted to be

[00:01:27] Commander in chief

[00:01:28] Of my one woman army

[00:01:33] But I can envision the mediocrity

[00:01:36] Of my finest hour

[00:01:38] Its the failed america in me

[00:01:42] Its the fear that lives

[00:01:44] In a forest of stone

[00:01:46] Underneath the corporate canopy

[00:01:48] Where the sun

[00:01:48] Rarely

[00:01:49] Filters

[00:01:50] Down

[00:01:51] And the ground

[00:01:52] Is not so soft
