Human Sadness Lyrics - Tyranny - Julian Casablancas

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field 

I will be meeting you there 

Put money in my hand 

And I will do the things you want me to 

Vanity... overriding wisdom 

Usually common sense 

Should I delete it 

You said you'd read it 

You promised you would never ruin it with sequels 

I wake for you... on and on 

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, I will be meeting you there. (x2) 

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field... 

~ 

The moon's a skull, I think it's grinning 

The room is full of people now I think it's spinning 

Wanted you... 

Didn't ask for nothing. 

Wait for you... 

On and on 

And I don't need your tie, I don't need to, tired of saying it. 

We don't need more talk, don't empty out your canteen on The desert floor. 

...ahhh, 

It's all my fault 

Never wanna spell it out, 

I just want to say that it is all my fault, 

I could never spit it out, 

I don't wanna fix your tie... 

Never want to say we're sad, 

Thankful that we got some chance, 

I know you won't get back your time, 

I wish that you could take it back... 

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field,I will be meeting you there. (x3) 

~ 

He wanted it more than me, I suppose 

I was in a rush to wait in a line. 

Now I hear echoes of my old self, 

This is not the way to be. 

All at once, 

I lost my way... 

Is it not true, the things that we did? 

Come here at once and look what they did 

Come here shut down and tune in tonight, 

Learn the words that they teach you 

Without you realizing it 

Come here sit down and watch some tv 

Mine all mine 

Wait your turn 

Cross my cross 

Slice his hand 

Not your son 

Not your friend 

Not your enemy 

I rely on the little things to get me by, 

Conscience says "I'm ok", 

You don't hear what they say. 

"He's not my son, search his home" 

Off to war, 

It's time to go hide inside 

- 

Soft skin, 

Weak chin, 

Just walk me through it, 

Tell me what to do I'll do it 

Hurry hurry, that's my baby 

Ohh, do what you can. 

All the time, 

He waits for me. 

And now we talk, 

From time to time 

Hits you on the head when nobody's there, 

Then he says 'come here could you fix my tie?' 

It's never gonna be, 

To be is not the way to be. 

Show me where to go don't get angry so quickly, 

Fuck depression...! 

Beyond all ideas of right and wrong there is a field, 

I will be meeting you there 

~ 

Understanding is more important than love, 

If not money will always trump justice 

All is lost, 

I'll find my way... 

So I say, 

To be is not to be. 

To be is not the way to be.
