Lyrics:

Look in my eyes
See the lust and the love
Look in my eyes
When I'm talking to you
I'll take my life
Into my own hands
I'm the one that I will blame
I'm the one that understands

What are we gonna do?
While we've still got the strength to move
What are we gonna do?
I'm asking, I'm asking you

A call to arms, a call to use arms
A call to brains, a call to use some brains
A call to the heart, a call to have a heart
To have a sense of purpose again

Are we where we want to be
All wrapped up in our safety?
Comfort and complacency
It hurts me, it hurts me

What are we going to do?
While we've still got the strength to move
What are we going to do?
I'm asking, I'm asking you

[gasda25]

one of the best songs from one of the best albums by one of the most underated bands ever

[snortemis]

What an amazing song. I'll say it again: what an amazing song. Adrian may be gone but he lives on through the music.

[Killer0fTheSun]

1 person has no sense of purpose

[SergentPatate]

If you like this style of music try obstacle 1 or Evil from Interpol they are also great !

[theekrusher]

Totally great song, can't believe I missed out back then on this. Love it! A new fan for an old band

[MrMerlin87]

heard this on one of my parents mixed cd's. I could tell just from this track that the rest of the album would be just as brilliant. how right i was!
