People, all us fucked-up people

People, all us fucked-up people

What are we gonna do with ourselves?

What are we gonna do with ourselves?

And our addictions, and our desire to kill each other

And our addictions, and our desire to kill each other

And special things, your own dreams?

And special things, your own dreams?

People, all us fucked-up people

People, all us fucked-up people

Can't we see behind the pain of losing?

Can't we see behind the pain of losing?

I had a dream of love and colors

I had a dream of love and colors

And all the while it seemed real

And all the while it seemed real

And in this dream, we were unique

And in this dream, we were unique

Couldn't it be?

Couldn't it be?

I wasn't cryin' before he died

I wasn't cryin' before he died

He died so young and I can't see you anymore

He died so young and I can't see you anymore

'Cause there's no answers here, there's no feeling

'Cause there's no answers here, there's no feeling

People, all us fucked-up people

People, all us fucked-up people

Can't we see beyond the pain of losing one another?

Can't we see beyond the pain of losing one another?

I had this dream of trust and beauty

I had this dream of trust and beauty

And all the while, it seemed real

And all the while, it seemed real

And in this dream, we were not fighting

And in this dream, we were not fighting

Couldn't it be?

Couldn't it be?

You gave it up, you lost your reason

You gave it up, you lost your reason

You never saw, you are unique

You never saw, you are unique

You spread your wings and cut 'em off

You spread your wings and cut 'em off

You're only hurting

You're only hurting

People, all our fucked-up smiles

People, all our fucked-up smiles

We quit dreaming long ago

We quit dreaming long ago

And our distrust

And our distrust

And our addictions

And our addictions

And our desire to kill each other

And our desire to kill each other

Makes all the sense in the world

Makes all the sense in the world

You just fucked up for a moment

You just fucked up for a moment

You're only hurting

You're only hurting

That's just like me

That's just like me

That's just like me

That's just like me

That's just like me

That's just like me

I had this dream of love and colors

I had this dream of love and colors
