poison - something to believe in كلمات الأغنية

well i see him on the tv
preachin’ bout the promise land
he tells me to believe in jesus
and steals the money from my hand

some say he was a good man
but lord i think he sinned, yeah

twenty-two years of mental tears
cries a suicidal vietnam vet
who fought a losing war on a foreign sh-r-
to find his country didn’t want him back

their bullets took his best friend in saigon
our lawyers took his wife, his kids, no regrets
in a time i don’t remember
in a war he can’t forget

he cries “forgive me for what i’ve done there
cause i never meant the things i did”

chorus:
and give me something to believe in
if there’s a lord above
and give me something to believe in
oh, lord arise

our best friend died a lonely man
in some palm springs hotel room
i got the call last christmas eve
and they told me the news

i tried all night not to break down and cry
as the tears rolled down my face
i felt so cold and empty
like a lost soul out of place

and the mirror, mirror on the wall
sees my smile it fades again

chorus

sometimes i wish to god i didn’t know now
the things i didn’t know then
road you gotta take me home

i drive by the homeless sleepin on a cold dark street
like bodies in and open grave
underneath the broken old neon sign
that used to read jesus saves

a mile away live the rich folk
and i see how they’re living it up
while the poor they eat from hand to mouth
the rich is drinkin’ from a golden cup

and it just makes me wonder
why so many lose, so few win

chorus

you take the high road
and i’ll take the low road

sometime i wish i didn’t know now
the things i didn’t know then

and give me something to believe in
