Of course I want there to be an us, I've always wanted that

Giving time and patience trying hard to understand

We never feel the power of our own hands, sense the danger late

And only vaguely ever grasp the means of our sole salvation?

What then? Do it right, do it now here there, everywhere

Shouting out I'm as mad as hell, he pushes his legs against the bed

And feels the triumph flooding through his head

He could conquer, he could win, now that dying only means

You're not in next week's program

Stop being a baby, will you stop, will you stop it

Won't you stop play-acting little man?

Just how long till you drop it

Will it be this year, next year, sometime, never?

Stop, when you feel like saying have a heart but don't take mine

There's a new dance, the tolerance

And it just might be your sole salvation

Sole salvation, your sole salvation, your sole salvation

Make a cross, make amends to set the record straight

We've never said the only things we should have ever bothered saying

Lets write out a list of things we need, strike a brand new deal

Strong enough for any man, but has a woman's understanding in it

And then finish

And just stop, when you feel like saying have a heart, but don't take mine

And try a new dance, the tolerance, it just might be your sole salvation

Sole salvation, your sole salvation, sole salvation

Sole salvation, sole salvation, sole salvation, sole salvation
