Variations Of Dirt

I don't know what it takes to make amends
I don't know how to justify the ends
I don't know how a man can make the means
I don't know what it takes or what it seems
One man lives just to move a line
another good man runs out of time
the last man waits it suits him just fine
one man's dirt is another mans soul
one man's dirt is another mans gold
one man lives the other got old

What is left ^ you should have been there
What was won ^ you should have been there
What is done ^ you should have been there
What it took ^ you should have been there
Did you look ^ you should have been there
You should have been there (3x)

I almost get killed every day ^ I got used to it
variations of dirt ^ variations of dirt

every change just makes it more the same
what people do just to share the blame
just a cog in a do nothing machine
everything is exactly what it seems
he walked out the door and into the sunlight
just because you followed doesn't make it right
