People Help the People

God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts

Guess he kissed the girls and made them cry

Those hard-faced Queens of misadventure

God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes

Fiery thrones of muted angels

Giving love but getting nothing back

Oh, people help the people

And if you're homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it

People help the people

And nothing will drag you down

Oh, and if I had a brain

Oh, and if I had a brain

I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool

That turned all those good hearts away

God knows what is hiding in this world of little consequence

Behind the tears, inside the lies

A thousand slowly dying sunsets

God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts

Guess the loneliness came knocking

No one needs to be alone or sinking

People help the people

And if you're homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it

People help the people

Nothing will drag you down

Oh, and if I had a brain

Oh, and if I had a brain

I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool

That turned all those good hearts away

People help the people

And if you're homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it

People help the people

Nothing will drag you down

Oh, and if I had a brain

Oh, and if I had a brain

I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool

That turned all those good hearts away
