Intro: Verse 1: Jesus called he won’t be coming for dinner tonight Democracy cancelled out some kind of fight So tell me how am I supposed to eat alone? When all of my butlers have gone nannies have gone. yeah On the morning of my birth I must have wondered at the earth I must have seen the trees like adam showed them to eve But now I am american and white all I know is anxiety and fright Now love is something I must search for... to find Jesus called he won’t be coming for dinner love Democracy cancelled out for the final time I’m beggin’ brothers and sisters cut your leashes free now We were born branded we were born branded we were born branded We were born second-handed down Verse 2: The shephard is in a field of reality Blames the sheep for lost possibilities The sheep may be lost but the shepherd he is just as lost A shepherd is a man afraid of Losing all the things he made up to Keep his feet planted high above the field And I’m talkin’ about mother father sister brother Teacher preacher anyone who dares to tell you where to stand I say the love is in your hands Just look at the world don’t try to understand Jesus called he won’t be coming for dinner love Democracy cancelled out for the final time I’m beggin’ brothers and sisters cut your leashes free now We were born branded we were born branded we were born branded We were born second-handed down **REPEAT Chorus 2 Outro: We were born branded second-handed down **REPEAT chords with vocal ad-libs and fade

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque un sentiment de solitude et de désillusion face à un monde où les promesses de l'amour et de la démocratie semblent remises en question. Le chanteur parle de l'absence de Jésus, comme si sa présence était cruciale pour trouver un sens à la vie, et explore le besoin humain de connexion et d'appartenance. Il évoque aussi l'idée que nous naissons déjà marqués par les attentes et les échecs de notre société, soulignant une quête désespérée pour la liberté et l'amour authentique. Le contexte semble ancré dans une réflexion sur les luttes personnelles et collectives, où l'individu se sent perdu, tout en appelant à une libération des chaînes qui entravent notre authenticité. Ce message résonne particulièrement dans un monde où les valeurs fondamentales sont souvent brouillées par la superficialité et l'angoisse des réalités contemporaines.
