Sum of Us Lyrics
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
Sum of us have more rights than the others
Sum of us have to fight more than the others do
We all have our time to live
But we don't have time for each other
We all have our time to live
But we don't have time for each other
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
Well there ain't no reward
For being being a no one
For being ignored
Sum of us don't deserve a second chance
Sum of us don't deserve to make demands
We all have our time to live
But we don't have time for each other
We decide how much we give
But if what goes round, comes around again
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
Sum of us have to fight more than the others do
But we don't have time for each other
We all have our time to live
But we don't have time for each other
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
For being being a no one
For being ignored
Sum of us don't deserve a second chance
Sum of us don't deserve to make demands
But we don't have time for each other
We decide how much we give
But if what goes round, comes around again
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others
Who don't help the others
God help those who don't help
Who don't help the others

BEST song on the album.. i dont understand why White noise was such a hit.. i mean good but cmpared to the other songs hmpf. meaning is simple. Respect each other and help each other. And for those who dont.. what goes around comes around
I agree 100%. This is my favorite song on the album and possibly my favorite TLE song of all time.
I guess it's mostly about respect for each other. When I first heard it I thought the lyric was "God help(s) those who don't help the others" and I thought it was about inequality in religion, ie how many churches like the catholic church have huge sums of money but really just look after themselves, but I don't think that was the intended meaning of the song.
I think it's mostly saying people who only look after themselves won't have anyone else to look after them when they need help, as "what goes around comes around". so we have to make time for each other, especially those who have less rights and those who have greater struggles in their lives.
I really really like this song a lot.
one of my facorite songs from White Noise. I would LOVE to see them play this live. I've been into raggae type a lot lately. "waaaayooooo, wayooooo" love it :D
