Love this song and just felt like posting the amazing lyrics....
I'll let you decipher the meaning of this song, whether you think there is one or not.
Brighten- Single Millionaires.
There's a man, on the corner, with his hands holding tightly to his hat so it wont blow away.
With a girl, with her hands in her pockets, holding tightly to her money, so she wont blow it today.
Its all the same.
Every day.
When he gets home from work
There's his children already in bed
Without seeing his face today.
And the girl with empty pockets
Spent her money
She might as well just throw her wallet in the fireplace.
And she is the L and he is the O for us, liars out there
And she is the V and he is the E for the violence in everyone.
And we might spell you, but we're Nothing like you.
When his kids grow up old and have children of their own, they swear they'll never wear the same size hat their father wears.
And the girl, now a woman, says she's happy and thanks god for jewelry and single millionaires.
And she is the H and he is the O for us, humble orphans.
And she is the P and he is the E for potential in everyone.
And we might spell you,
But we're nothing like you.
Oh, Happy Earth Day.
