If you read the news today
You could be forgiven
For thinking there's no hope
For all of the humankind
If this indecision
And that superstition
Became your position
Maybe it's not that much of a surprise

Oh, the media drama keeps rolling
It's like wearing a balaclava
With no holes in
And all of the lies, they feed us
When they bang on their little drums
It's making it feel like
Feel like no one likes anyone

Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
I don't really know if we're people, people
Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
I don't really know if we're people, people

It's harder to find your way
When your deep in the shadows
When most of what's illuminated is the worst of the humankind
If all our suspicion
Is clouding your vision
With no one position
Maybe it takes a hole inside your mind

Oh, the media drama keeps rolling
It's like wearing a balaclava
With no holes in
And all of the lines, they feed us
Contain the danger
That we could get lost
We could get lost in this echo chamber

Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
I don't really know if we're people, people
Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
Are we people, people?
I don't really know if we're people, people

You've dug me out of this hole
You've dug me out of this
You've dug me out of this hole
You've dug me out of this
But it took so long
It took so long
It took so long
It took so long

You've dug me out of this hole
You've dug me out of this
You've dug me out of this hole
You've dug me out of this
But it took so long
(I can see people, people) It took so long
(We could be people, people) It took so long
(I bet you know people, people) It took so long
(Everyone people, people)

I can see people, people
We could be people, people
I bet you know people, people
Everyone people, people

I can see people, people
We could be people, people
I bet you know people, people
Everyone people, people
