lyrics

This is just the place
Where we were born, and
Even though, the system
Always seems to win

Don’t let it get you down
There’s always room
In the cracks
To hide away

Art, love and music
Are the vehicles
Of transcendence
That we can share

The other stuff
Is for angry old men
And people with nothing else
In their lives

Drama, anger and hatred
Are the poisons
Being thrown around
But baby

Don’t let it get you down
There’s always room
In the cracks
To find each other

Hurricanes and earthquakes
Wars and drone attacks
Are all outside our control
But the universe is so much bigger

Art, love and music
Are the vehicles
Of transcendence
That we can share

If I let it get to me
I might have to
Set myself on fire
To express my outrage

But the world doesn’t care
And the best statement
Is to live a beautiful life
In spite of the ugliness

Down in the cracks
Where no one can see us
We can hide away
And find each other

With art, love and music
The vehicles
Of transcendence
That we can share

Drama, anger and hatred
Are the poisons
Being thrown around
But baby

Don’t let it get you down
There’s always room
In the cracks
Where we can find each other
