Lyrics

[00:04.68] Lives In the Balance
[00:09.96] Jackson Browne
[00:14.42] I've been waiting for something to happen
[00:17.66] For a week or a month or a year
[00:19.49] With the blood in the ink of the headlines
[00:24.79] And the sound of the crowd in my ear
[00:28.11] You might ask what it takes to remember
[00:31.51] When you know that you've seen it before
[00:35.17] Where a government lies to a people
[00:38.17] And a country is drifting to war
[00:42.25] And there's a shadow on the faces
[00:45.51] Of the men who send the guns
[00:49.10] To the wars that are fought in places
[00:52.81] Where their business interest runs
[00:56.16] On the radio talk shows and the T.V.
[00:59.53] You hear one thing again and again
[01:03.17] How the U.S.A. stands for freedom
[01:06.63] And we come to the aid of a friend
[01:09.66] But who are the ones that we call our friends--
[01:13.70] These governments killing their own?
[01:17.22] Or the people who finally can't take any more
[01:20.68] And they pick up a gun or a brick or a stone
[01:24.07] There are lives in the balance
[01:26.95] There are people under fire
[01:29.74] There are children at the cannons
[01:34.89] And there is blood on the wire
[02:16.96] There's a shadow on the faces
[02:19.98] Of the men who fan the flames
[02:23.58] Of the wars that are fought in places
[02:27.02] Where we can't even say the names
[02:30.81] They sell us the President the same way
[02:34.36] They sell us our clothes and our cars
[02:37.80] They sell us every thing from youth to religion
[02:41.31] The same time they sell us our wars
[02:44.43] I want to know who the men in the shadows are
[02:47.81] I want to hear somebody asking them why
[02:51.35] They can be counted on to tell us who our enemies are
[02:54.92] But they're never the ones to fight or to die
[02:58.34] And there are lives in the balance
[03:01.16] There are people under fire
[03:04.41] There are children at the cannons
[03:08.90] And there is blood on the wire
