Somebody screamed Somebody forced a lie Somebody broke my faith today
And though it always seems the first time It happens all the time baby I find I'm dangling on a thin line We are moving through life as pray
Somebody cried Someone broke down inside And I been listening to their stories
Down on the floor I look up at the faces Ragged by the races Moving in time Following the traces Pretending a smile Walking million miles with the forces of a wounded mule
And though it always seems the first time It happens all the time baby I find I'm dangling on a thin line We are moving through life as pray
Somebody arrives in a foreign place and starts to cry But not a soul who thinks of giving up his precious place And so they die
And though it always seems the first time It happens all the time baby I find I'm dangling on a thin line We are moving through life as prey
