Save Our Souls
Mötley Crüe Lyrics

Black angels laughing in the city streets
People who are evil and corrupt are walking around the streets without any shame.

Street toys scream in pain and clench their teeth
Innocent people on the streets who are getting targeted or marginalized are being oppressed and have no way of speaking up.

The moonlight spotlights all the city crime
Even though most people tend to stay indoors after dark, the reality is that there is crime happening and that it is being exposed under the cover of the moonlight.

Got no religion
Nobody has any faith and nobody is turning towards religion or spirituality to solve modern-day problems.

Laugh while they fight
People are getting entertained by the fights and conflicts they are witnessing around them, instead of trying to empathize with those who are suffering.

Save our souls for the heavens
We need to start saving ourselves before it is too late and we can no longer fix or solve the problems that the world is experiencing.

For a life so good it sure feels bad
Even though we have all the things required to have a good life, it seems that something is always missing and our lives are not fulfilling.

Save our souls for the promised land
We need to keep trying to improve our world and make it a more peaceful place to live, in order to reach a promised land of happiness and contentment.

Sweet tarts play the game and shoot to thrill
Young people who are only interested in having fun are playing with dangerous games and weapons which can cause irreversible damage and harm.

Runnin' free through the trash dressed to kill
People are taking advantage of the luxurious lifestyle and disregarding any moral values in the process, like dressing up and acting out scenes of violence and aggression.

The midnight show-stoppers, it's a funny money game
The people who run the show and are pulling the strings behind the scenes are using money to manipulate and control everything.

A hundred thousand bleeding hearts, put us in our graves
The innocent people in the world who are powerless and voiceless keep getting hurt and dying because nobody takes action to create any real change.

It's been the hard road, edge of an overdose
The journey to find real solutions or to fix the world's problems has been difficult and dangerous, and it's causing people to experience emotional and physical exhaustion.

No matter how high you're still too low
People who are born into a lower social class will stay there no matter how hard they try to climb up, because of the unfair life circumstances they have to deal with.

I've been the dancer, the wicked romancer
People who think they can turn a blind eye to the problems of the world and indulge in hedonistic pleasures will eventually have to face the harsh reality of life.

It's a never-ending nightmare, edge of disaster
The world is facing one crisis after another, and it seems like we are always on the verge of collapse or destruction.
