All You Can Do Lyrics - Where The Humans Eat - Willy Mason

Hopelessness in the alley, alone, draggin' his feet 

He wasn't born that way but life has just taught him defeat 

So he waits to teach you distrust from his cold home in the streets 

And hope is all that you can do 

Hopelessness is on the TV, infecting sea to shining sea 

In the worried eyes of our parents, try as we might not to believe 

And we tried pill and prescriptions but drugs won't cure this disease 

Hope is all that we can do 

This is the new year, nobody knows 

Where we are going, what's down the road 

The city is humming, the country is cold 

But you give me something, something like hope 

We grew up without parents to teach us wrong from right 

So we turned towards many heroes but still we couldn't sleep at night 

So we searched and read and listened to the songs old prophets sang 

Let's all get together friends and dance away the rain 

It's time to get together friends and dance away the rain 

This is the new year, nobody knows 

Where we are going, what's down the road 

The city is humming, the country is cold 

But you give me something, something like hope
