Letras
[Verse 1]
People on the street now
Faces long and grim
Souls are feeling heavy
And faith is growing thin
[Verse 2]
Fears are getting stronger
You can feel them on the rise
Hopelessness got some by the throat
You can see it in their eyes
[Verse 3]
I said how come?
How come?
[Verse 4]
Everybody on a shoestring
Everybody in a hole
Everybody an this old jet plane
Crossing their fingers and toes
[Verse 5]
Government man spins his politics
Till they've got you pinned
Everybody trying to reach out to each other
But they don't know where to begin
[Verse 6]
I said how come
I can't tell the free world
From a living hell?
I said how come?
[Verse 7]
How come?
All I see is a child of God in misery?
I said how come?
[Verse 8]
The pistol now as prophet
The bullet some kind of lord and king
But pain is the only promise
That this so-called savior is gonna bring
[Verse 9]
Love can be a liar
And justice can be a thief
And freedom can be an empty cup
From which everybody wanna drink
[Verse 10]
I said how come
I can't tell the free world
From a living hell?
I said how come?
[Verse 11]
How come?
All I see is a child of God in misery
I said how come?
[Verse 12]
It's just man killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man
I don't understand
[Verse 13]
It's just man killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man
I don't understand it
[Verse 14]
It's just man killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man, killing man
[Verse 15]
I don't understand it
I don't understand it
I don't understand it
I don't understand it
[Verse 16]
How come?
I said how come?
How come?
I said how come?
