People Make It Work Video (MV)

When you're seeking shelter but there's room for no more
When your scars are itching you feel evil at its core
When the world imposes a will of its own
When the birds are lost and your cover's blown

When you're all alone as you sit in your chair
People make it work
And the years are told by a comb through your hair
People make it work
When the garden blooms and all the fruit comes in
People make it work
When it's love that covers over all your sin

As you stand face down in the corner in a room filled with your closest friends
As you scream from deep within a cave while your brothers and your sisters all join hands
Standing silent at the microphone pleading for someone to feel your skin

When the old man is dying and your heart is breaking
People make it work
In the final miles as your feet are aching
People make it work
When you accept the joy and you accept the grief
People make it work
When you fill your life like a patient thief

When the light goes out of your father's eyes
When the truth rings loud so much louder than all his lies
People make it work
When you hear the word in your native tongue
People make it work
When the stars twinkle as your day is done

As you stand face down in the corner in a room filled with your closest friends
As you scream from deep within a cave while your brothers and your sisters all join hands
Standing silent at the microphone pleading for someone to feel your skin

As you stand face down in the corner in a room filled with your closest friends
As you scream from deep within a cave while your brothers and your sisters all join hands
Standing silent at the microphone
