Total Collapse

It's strange in a way that you should ask me this Because I have not always had the answer I suppose I would say that it's been a long while Since I have had to find the answer Find the truth Everything just seems to be squashed up together In this crazy place we call life In this mad hypocritical world we exist in Where money drives the poor and the wealthy Where food is purchased in the belief It will make you last longer make you grow stronger Find the truth And yet thousands never really see it Or never really experience what it's like to be fed So I have no answers I have no real answers I cannot tell you which way to turn Which way to go Or where you'll end up Or where you've even come from Find the truth You have got to do what you have got to do And try what you got to try And god will not help you on the way Nobody will Your life will start your life will finish You'll think to yourself where the fuck did that go Where did it go Find the truth Every footstep you took another hour was lost The faster you ran the quicker you stopped There is no hurry to get through this life I sometimes wonder why people try I really do Everyday newspapers, news stands, newsreaders They tell the same tragedy somewhere Greed always greed Million dollar sports stars million dollar cars Find the truth Thousands with no food, thousands dying And wars destroying the beauty that was once a country I don't know why we do it I don't know why we carry on All seems such a waste of time I look out the window I see young children I think to myself You have not got much to grow into Unless you are very fortunate Because there a always those that are fortunate Never have to work Never have to cry Find the truth Now I see things on the dark side I see things that worry me Frighten me scare me And there is nothing I can do I walked into life years ago Bright eyed and bushy tailed Wanted to learn wanted to be somebody Wanted to be something Instead I am just like millions of others Battered and bruised Wondering what happened Never saw it coming Always saw it going Reached heights fell down holes Fell further and further Find the truth So I don't know what to do now Don't know what the next answer is I look at myself sometimes in a mirror And all I can see is a total collapse A total collapse of the person that I wanted to be That I really wanted to be Nothing has worked out Find the truth And for each day that goes by I go further and further into those thoughts Those thoughts I never thought I would think of Here I am alone staring into space My head in a mess Wondering What to do next What the hell should I do
