Hello Hum

Hello Hum

Verse 1

Hello hum

Let the rain wash away the pain

You've been working all day

You've been sweating all night

And now you're tired

Every tree has been breathing for you

The ground has remained steady

Rocks haven't been thrown

And the doctor tells you 

That you must drink clean water to be well-hydrated

You should listen to him

Even though he's paid to make people sick

He's created poison, he's interfered with wellness

But don't blindly reject everything prescribed by him

Verse 2

Hello hum

You don't have to discuss feminism

It's worked against you, it's battled with you

And now you're frail

You don't need to jump on wagons constructed by others

To follow plans by masterminds

To engage with criminal minds

Get off the roller coasters and open your eyes

You're the greatest prize

Who's been taught to despise all that you are

Verse 3

Hello hum

Sometimes you just need to hush

If your mouth is always open 

You'll eventually catch flies

What you say will be plastered on the web

And the web will weave tales

That are against your creed

Every syllable will be de-constructed and repackaged for judgement

They'll cover you with labels and base everything on perception

What you put out won't be well-received

It won't be encouraged

Chorus

You're a big dude / Stop behaving like a puppet / It's time to cut the white strings with big black scissors / Shed what's artificial and say hello to yourself / Be the unforgettable fire that could never be put out / Hello hum

Outro

Hello hum (8x; whisper)
