We can run lyrics

Artist  : Grateful dead 
Song : We can run
 
We don’t own this place, though we act as if we
did,
It’s a loan from the children of our children’s
kids.
The actual owners haven’t even been born yet.

Bur we never tend the garden and rarely we pay
the rent,
Some of it is broken and the rest of it is bent
Put it all on plastic and I wonder where we’ll be
when the bills hit.

We can run,
But we can’t hide from it.
Of all possible worlds,
We only got one:
We gotta ride on it.
Whatever we’ve done,
We’ll never get far from what we leave behind,
Baby, we can run, run, run, but we can’t hide.
Oh no, we can’t hide.

I’m dumpin’ my trash in your back yard
Makin’ certain you don’t notice really isn’t so
hard
You’re so busy with your guns and all of your
excuses to use them.

Well, it’s oil for the rich and babies for the
poor,
We got everyone believin’ that more is more,
If a reckoning comes, maybe we will know what to
do then.

All these complications seem to leave no choice,
I heard the tongues of billion speak with just
one voice,
Saying, "just leave all the rest to me,
I need it worse than you, you see."
And then I heard....
The sound of one child crying.

Today I went walking in the amber wind,
There’s a hole in the sky where the light pours
in
I remembered the days when I wasn’t afraid of the
sunshine.

But now it beats down on the asphalt land
Like a hammering blow from god’s left hand
What little still grows cringes in the shade like
a bad vine.
