Hey You - Tommy Stinson

A thousand fires burn out of control

And no one’s ever there

To see them

We’re dyin of thirst our voice is lost

From all this screaming

I came down in a lonely state

And now everyone is leaving

Our souls so charred beyond recognition

And I’m trying to find the reason

Yeah

There’s a widow at my front door

She said she heard that I was freezin

They said she’s done time

But no one said she’s done time for treason

They say she don’t take anything from anyone

Which ain’t worth giving

I say I don’t give anything to anyone which ain’t worth stealing

Yeah

Hey you

Did you come to fight

Have you come to the rescue

Hey you

Did you come to watch

Have you come to ridicule

Everything’s gotten so far out of hand

There’s not much that we could do

Hey you

Did you come to fight

Have you come to the rescue

The city is falling apart

And the clouds and the earth have started bleeding

You just stand around like you don’t understand

What it is you’re seeing

Time stands still like a broken clock

When our life is so deceiving

You got close once before

And now you’re only dreaming

Hey you

Did you come to fight

Have you come to the rescue

Hey you

Did you come to die

Did you come to be ridiculed

Everyone’s gotten so bent out of shape

There’s not much that we can do

Hey you

Have you come to fight

Have you come to the rescue

I ain’t waiting for the proof

And I ain’t waiting for the future

I’ve seen too many signs now

And everyone was wrong

I’m just waking up the truth

And I ain’t waiting round for you

Hey you

Did you come to fight

Have you come to the rescue

Hey you

Did you come to watch

Did you come to ridicule

Everything’s gotten so far out of hand

They say there’s not much that we could do

Hey you

Did you come to fight

Have you come to the rescue

Yeah
