Move the Needle

Desensitize my tired eyes Ring out my heart I'd look away, I'd close the blinds but watching a trainwreck won't save lives In God we trust Call it luck Ashes to ashes Dust to dust I'd short the bond While I still can Then go with grace While the world ends I'm getting my friends high But we could be much higher Stomp out all the flames But I'd risk catching fire Oh, Oh Oh God knows that I love the people But what hell would move the needle Oh, Oh Oh God knows that I love the people But what hell would move the needle I rest my head on dirty sheets I stay in bed but I can't sleep My active minds now asking to me To pick my news or pick my peace And I want to, want to, want it more (up) To find a freedom I could die For, Lord, I want love In a place where happiness is not a warm gun I'm getting my friends are getting high But we could be much higher Stomp out all the flames But I kinda like being on fire Oh, Oh Oh God knows that I love the people But what hell would move the needle Oh, Oh Oh God knows that I love the people But what hell would move the needle Can't feel the bloodstream Can't feel the bloodstream I can see you drowning take it with a chaser I know it's in your nature My friends are getting high But we could be so much higher CHORUS Oh, Oh Oh God knows that I love the people But what hell would move the needle Oh, Oh Oh God knows that I love the people But what hell would move the needle
