Welcome to the Human Race Songtext

von Walter Trout

I've been loved and I've been hated
I've been praised and vilified
I've been accused and vindicated
And precious been applied

I've been interrogated validated
Left without my pride
Sometimes I have told the truth
Sometimes I have lied

And when I find my self
In a cold and empty space
And then a voice inside says welcome

I've been wounded, I've been damaged
I've been down upon my knees
Praying for forgiveness
From my enemies

Sometimes grand illusions
They start clouding up my eyes
Then I get lost in my illusions
But I get caught down aside

When I found I myself
With teardrops on my face
Then a voice inside, it says welcome

Welcome
Welcome

I've been in jail I've been in pail
I've been high and I've been low
Just what I've been running from
I guess I never know
I've been packaged and presented
For everyone to see
Welcome and resented
But I guess I am always gonna be

Hiding in the shadow
Just cryin' upon my face
And I hear a voice inside me
That says welcome
To the human race

It says welcome
