Sincerely, Jane. Songtext / Lyric

Left the city, my momma she said, "Don't come back home

These kids 'round killin each other, they lost they minds, they gone

They quittin' school, making babies and can barely read

Some gone off to that war, Lord have mercy on them

One, two, three, four, your cousins is 'round here sellin' dope

While they're daddy, your uncle, is walking 'round strung out

Babies with babies, and their tears keep burning

While their dreams go down the drain now"



(While their dreams go down the drain)

Are we really living or just walking dead now?

(Are we walking dead now?)

Or dreaming of a hope riding the wings of angels?



The way we live, the way we die

What a tragedy, I'm so terrified

Day dreamers, please wake up

We can't sleep no more






Love don't make no sense, ask your neighbor

The winds have changed, it seems that they've abandoned us

The truth hurts, and so does yesterday

What good is love if it burns bright and explodes in flames?



I thought every living thing had love, but uh...



Are we really living or just walking dead now?

(Are we walking dead now?)

Or dreaming of a hope riding the wings of angels?



The way we live, the way we die

What a tragedy, I'm so terrified

Day dreamers, please wake up

We can't sleep no more



I've seen them shootin' up funerals in they Sunday clothes (Yah)

And spending money on spinners but won't pay college loans (Yah)

And all you gangers and bangers rolling dice and taking lives in a smokey dark

Lord have mercy on you (Yah)

Teacher, teacher please reach those girls in them videos (Live your life)

The little girls just broken Queens, confusing bling for soul

Danger, there's danger, when you take off your clothes

All your dreams go down the drain, girl



Are we really living or just walking dead now?

Or dreaming of a hope riding the wings of angels?



The way we live (The way we live)

The way we die (The way we die)

What a tragedy, I'm so terrified

Day dreamers, please wake up

We can't sleep no more



(Lord, have mercy on them)

(Lord, have mercy on them)

(Lord, have mercy on them)

(Lord, have mercy on them)



(Are we really living or just walking dead now?)



We live and then we die, and we never know the why

So now, now we go, down underground

We think that we can fly, but we never touch the sky

So now, now we go, down underground



(Ooh)



57821, it is now time for you to come home, my dear

You've been gone long enough



Thank you

(Lord have mercy on them)

But you must come, you must go...

(Lord have mercy on them)



...Home
