out of our heads

Sheryl Crow

If you feel
You wanna fight me
There's a chain
Around your mind
When something
Is holding you tightly
What is real
Is so hard to find

Losing babies
To genocide
Oh
Where's the meaning
In that plight
Can't you see
That we've really
Bought into
Every word
They proclaimed
And every lie, oh

Chorus 1:
If we could only get
Out of our heads
Out of our heads
And into our hearts
If we could only get
Out of our heads
Out of our heads
And into our hearts

Someone's feeling
On your anger
Someone's been
Wwhispering in your ear
You've seen his face before
You've been played before
These aren't the words
You need to hear

Through the dawn
Of darkness blindly
You have blood
Upon your hands
All the world
Will treat you kindly
But only the heart
Can understand
Oh, understand

Chorus 2: (2x)
If we could only get
Out of our heads
Out of our heads
And into our hearts
Children of Abraham
Lay down your fears
Sswallow your tears
And look to your heart

Every man
Is his own prophet
Oh, every prophet
Just a man
I say all the women
Stand up, say yes
To themselves
Teach your children
Best you can

Let every man
Bow to the best in himself
We're not killing any more
We're the wisest ones
Everybody listen
'Cause you can't fight
This feeling
Any more, oh anymore

(Chorus 2) (2x)
