I went talking to people Talking to people from everywhere
Even if the world was run by muscle and war Lies and corruption Even if it was unjust and wrong, founded by animals Even if the people were separated, afraid and cynical of each other And even if everything was instant and unnatural We still went looking for the soul of man Like looking for angels in your soup
I left home and came back And I said I couldn't find it There was disappointment in my sister's eyes She spoke in many places, races and faces Was I still looking for the soul of man?
And the stress grew The world got harsher More separate More afraid And still the newly conscripted in their already worn gear still bright With torchlights and walkie talkies And dreams strapped across their chests Went looking for the soul of man
Like an eye is meant for seeing, a mouth for speaking You can't escape it Everywhere I went People were looking for the soul of man
