lyrics

In an eastside LA suburb there’s a man locked in his room
Who has learned to love all humans, can’t seem to find a single one
On his desk next to his Bible is a notebook that contains
In peaceful poetry, the purpose of every tragedy and pain

He’d share the solution, but there’s none he cares to tell
Because he loves everybody but the one in front of him

He’s been searching for the answers to questions old as time
Like: are we human, are we dancer? And do all songs need to
Have parallel structure?
In the fog he found a jar full of every reason why
He pulled his fist up feeling hopeful but his hand was stuck inside

He holds the theory that he might learn to live in time
Cause he loves everybody but the one in front of him

He gives his alms to the poor,
Long as they don’t bug him anymore
And keep off my property,
I just need a moment of peace
Because I love everybody,
I just want a little peace

He loves everybody,
He loves every living thing
He loves everybody
But the one in front of him
