How much is a person worth?

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] If you take us apart Only numbers remain Written in grams Left at the bottom of a table Oxygen Coal and water A handful of dust A few small crystals A cheap item in the store The soul is not even available at a price [Chorus] How much is a person worth? More Than what can be measured Cannot fit in a number line Cannot be locked in a lab How much is a person worth? If he cries If he loves If he laughs Maybe we are worth exactly As much as we mean to each other [Verse 2] Wage on paper Tax A photo on a document Printed name Barcode Packed in a file But there is the hand The way it trembles When you first shake hands And there is the silence between the two words When you say: “I need you” [Chorus] How much is a person worth? More Than what can be measured Cannot fit in a number line Cannot be locked in a lab How much is a person worth? If they cry If they love If they laugh Maybe we are worth exactly As much as we mean to each other [Bridge] If it all goes off The light behind the window We don't take any objects Only that Whom we thanked on the way Maybe that will prove the truth Who is missing If they don't stay That's where the real price is What your heart keeps paying [Chorus] How much is a person worth? More Than what can be measured Cannot fit in a number line Cannot be locked in a lab How much is a person worth? If they cry If they love If they laugh Maybe we are worth exactly As much as we mean to each other
