People II 2: Still Peoplin'

If you've been kicked in or abused
 Or mistreated or misused
 You were told there was nowhere to go but up for you
 If you've been hurt or you've been betrayed
 Or you've been fucked or you've displaced
 You were told it was probably your fault anyway
 But when your Hustler subscription and your Xanax prescriptions
 Make you feel lonelier instead
 You don't want to hear about all those starving children
 You don't want to be told it's all in your head
 'Cause if it's all in your head, that's terrible

 I saw a junkie lying in a puddle of his own blood last week
 I saw a cyclist get hit by a car
 I saw a homeless guy chug a bottle of mouthwash on Christmas Eve
 No, you can never fall too far
 You can buy a salad glove, you can buy an iPod
 And you can sell that shit to Bookman's
 When your wife dies and you lose your job
 You can hope it gets better
 You can follow your dreams
 But hope is for presidents
 And dreams are for people who are sleeping

 My friend Erin says it best
 "We're all two or three bad decisions away
 From becoming the ones that we fear and pity"
 And Toni says it's important to bear some witness when you can
 And that's not hard to do in the city that I live in
 You don't have it any better, you don't have it any worse
 You're an irreplaceable human soul
 With your own understanding of what it means to suffer
 And that's a huge bummer!
