lyrics

Verse 1:
All the days I've spent in dreamin and the nights I've spent awake 
Are all the ways that I can number how the body tends to break

Verse 2:
All the ways of my deceivin and the pleasure that I take 
Are all the means to my contentment, they keep me blind to what's at stake 

Chorus:
Damn the ever-winding wheel that turns the world on crushing steel
If I could know just where and when, maybe I could begin, maybe I, I could begin

Verse 3:
While my brother waits In prison and my sister waits for pay
There's a system workin over time that profits anyway

Verse 4:
There's a burden that earth abides and a burden for the sky
And it can't sustain the claim we've laid for us to occupy 

Chorus 2:
Damn the ever-winding wheel that turns the world on polished steel
If I could know just where and when, maybe I could begin, maybe I, I could begin

Verse 5:
So give me knees of fear and tremblin' and a heart for sacrifice 
And the grace to know that justice starts with the view of my own eyes
