« Check the meaning »
Richard Ashcroft
When I m low, and I m weak, and I m lost
I don t know who I can trust
Paranoia, the destroyer, comes knocking on my door
You know the pain drifts to days, turns to nights
But it slowly will subside
And when it does, I take a step, I take a breath
And wonder what I ll find
Can you hear what I m saying?
Got my mind meditating on love, love
Feel what I m saying
Got my mind meditating on love, love
(The human condition, the human condition)
Too much blood, too much hate, turn off the set
There s got to be something more
When Mohammed, Allah, Buddah, Jesus Christ
Are knocking down my door
I m agnostic getting God, but man
She takes a female form
There s no time, no space, no law
We re out here on our own
Can you hear what I m saying?
Got my mind meditating on love, love
Feel what I m saying
Got my mind meditating on love, love
Check the meaning
(The human condition)
Check the feeling
(The human condition)
Guess it s life, doing it s thing
Making you cry, making you think
Yeah life, dealing it s hand
Making you cry and you don t understand
Life, doing it s thing
Making you cry now, making you think of
Pain, doing it s thing
Making you cry yeah, making you sing
Don t say it, don t say it s too late
Don t, don t say it s too late (It s never too late, it s never too late)
Don t, don t say it s too late (It s never too late)
Don t, don t say it s too late
The human condition, the big decisions
The human condition, the big decisions
I m like a fish with legs, I fell from the tree
I made a rocket (check the meaning), I made a wheel
I made a rocket (check the feeling), I swam the ocean (check the meaning)
I saw the moon (say a prayer), I seen the universe (and beyond)
I see you (check the feeling), I see me (check the meaning)
That s my reality
And while the city sleeps we go walking
It s a beautiful world
And when the city sleeps we go walking
We find a hole in the sky and then we start talking
And then we say Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Buy us some time, buy us some time
Hear what I m saying
Can you hear what I m saying?
Can you hear what I m saying?
Can you hear what I m saying?
It s gonna be alright
I don t know who I can trust
Paranoia, the destroyer, comes knocking on my door
You know the pain drifts to days, turns to nights
But it slowly will subside
And when it does, I take a step, I take a breath
And wonder what I ll find
Can you hear what I m saying?
Got my mind meditating on love, love
Feel what I m saying
Got my mind meditating on love, love
(The human condition, the human condition)
Too much blood, too much hate, turn off the set
There s got to be something more
When Mohammed, Allah, Buddah, Jesus Christ
Are knocking down my door
I m agnostic getting God, but man
She takes a female form
There s no time, no space, no law
We re out here on our own
Can you hear what I m saying?
Got my mind meditating on love, love
Feel what I m saying
Got my mind meditating on love, love
Check the meaning
