God knows we weren't made for much
Just a pile of dust
Just a piece of clay
And your dogs aren't coming home
The dragons have all gone away
Your friends won't call and your love will fall
And love won't stay
And it won't snow
Oh, it won't snow
If you don't go to where it snows, then it won't snow
And I know why you've been failing,
It's because you're afraid to suffer.
And you can't love without being a lover;
You're nothing to nobody yet, so let's live.
Let's go run, let's leave at first light.
Let's go and love, let's take flight
And who cares? Let's get in a fight.
Let's get out of this martyring machine.
Let's all go find our dreams.
I don't know what I'm supposed to be, but I know its out there.
There's got to be love, there must be.
