Sound System lyrics

Sound system won`t you bring me back up
It`s the one thing that i can depend on...

Try to describe to the limit of my ability
It`s there a second and then it`s given up what it used to be
Contained in music somehow more than just sound
The inspiration coming and it`s twisting things around
Because--you always know that it`s gonna have to go
You always know that you`ll be back in the cold
Point of departure sublimated in a song
It`s always coming to give me that hope for just a second then it`s gone but--

Sound system won`t you bring me back up
It`s the one thing that i can depend on....

Static pulse inside of music bringing us escape
It`s always temporary, changing nothing in its wake



Just a second where we`re leaving all this shit behind
Just a second but it`s leaving just this much in mind:
To resist despair, that second makes you see
To resist despair, you can`t change everything
To resist despair in this world is--what it is, what it is, what it is to be free

Sound system won`t you bring me back up
It`s the one thing that i can depend on...

Sound! system!
Sound! system!

Wake up turn my box on bust the shade and let the sun in
Times getting tougher `bout time to start runnin`
Box in my hand, music by my side
Swingin` to the rhythm of the music by side

Sound system won`t you bring me back up
It`s the one thing that i can depend on...

Sound! system!
Sound! system!
