Ray LaMontagne - How Come lyrics

Your rating:

People on the street now
Faces long and grim
Souls are feeling heavy and
Faith is growing thin
Fears are getting stronger
You can feel them on the rise
Hopelessness got some by the throat
You can see it in their eyes

I said how come
How come
Everybody on a shoestring
Everybody in a hole
Everybody on his own 
Crossing their fingers and toes
Goverment man spin his politics 'till they got you pinned
Everybody trying to reach out to each other
But they don't know where to begin

I said how come
I can't tell
The free world from living hell
I said how come
How come
All I see is a child of God in mysery
I said how come

The pistol now as prophet
The bullet some kind of lord and king
But pain is the only promise
That this so called saviour is gonna bring
Love can be a liar
And justice can be a thief
And freedom can be an empty cup
From which everybody wanna drink

I said how come
I can't tell
The free world from living hell
I said how come
How come
All I see is a child of God in mysery
I said how come

It's just man killing man
Killing man. killing man
Killing man
I don't understand
It's just man killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man, killing man
Killing man, killing man
I don't understand it
I don't understand it
How come
I said how come
How come
I said how come
