People Turn Around Lyrics - Ode To Sunshine - Delta Spirit

Eighteen and jaded with guns in their hands 

They were fighting for freedom and just what is that? 

Bills to the banks and food for the kids 

Money for college but couldn't get in 

Made all the grades but got taken to task 

By a man in an alley wearing a mask 

Screamed and she begged as the people walked by 

The man he just laughed and the woman she cried 

Well, it's time all you people to turn around 

For the life we've been living, messing around 

The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry 

The life we've been killing is your life like mine? 

The needle is sweet and the snow it is pure 

The pain I've been hiding from, I'm finding a cure 

The night it is warm, well the light it is cold 

The family I'm loving, I'm calling them home 

Well, it's time all you people to turn around 

For the life we've been living, messing around 

The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry 

The life we've been killing is your life like mine? 

My heart it is thumping, the veins they've been blue 

The blood that's been pumping still hasn't met you 

The beard that I'm growing not fully grown 

The years are not coming the way I thought they would 

I'm hoping and waiting for something to sing 

Like the angels in heaven, the bones on the street 

Hoping for love to find a new voice 

The song that needs singing has already been sung before 

Well, it's time all you people to turn around 

For the life we've been living, messing around 

The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry 

The life we've been killing is your life like mine? 

Turn around 

For the life we've been living, messing around 

The blood we've been spilling will bleed us dry 

The life we've been killing is your life like mine?
