wow, these lyrics resonate. and haunt. 



[Verse]
Life is scary, we are scared
We've arrived here unprepared
Things are changing, we are learning
Though many scary things don't change

We are finding when we're looking
People have obstructed vision
Frightened people always hiding
Out in their homes upon the range

[Chorus]
The human times have come and gone
We must accept our rule is done
Though love is sown and will live on
Come to me, let me see your eyes once more
Before the storms come again

[Verse]
We were born here, we are lucky
That's why we're so bright and plucky
Why we are so hale and hearty
We've been given all the keys

We'll pack up and go to town
That's where it all is going down
Where everything is full collapsing
Falling right in front of me

[Chorus]
The human times have come and gone
We must accept our rule is done
Though love is sown and will live on
Come to me, let me see your eyes once more
Before the storms come again

[Verse]
We are all cogs, we are all dollars
Born to starch the wealthy's collars
To how much more will we bear witness
Before we learn a way to be?

That isn't daunted isn't haunted
Is a friend to those unwanted
And to those who are most deserving
Of all our love entirely

[Chorus]
The human times have come and gone
We must accept our rule is done
Though love is sown and will live on
Come to me, let me see your eyes once more
Before the storms will come again

This is fantastic. Thanks Bill for more music/artists that's new to me. 

"The human times have come and gone

We must accept our rule is done

Though love is sown and will live on

Come to me

Let me see your eyes once more

Before the storms will come again"

made my bed from a cardboard crate

Tantamount to good

Without making a new friend
