music & lyrics: John Voorhees

lyrics

There’s a lot of people walking ‘round with nothing on their mind
Seems some time ago they up and left the world behind
They don’t know what they’re doing, they don’t know how to try
But that’s a hard way to live your life and a harder way to die

There’s a lot of people walking ‘round with scars left on their hearts
They don’t talk to anyone for fear of pulling the seams apart
Some folks call ‘em crazy, some just call ‘em shy
But that’s a hard way to live your life and a harder way to die

Some people are just so sad that they can’t even cry
Some people even think the whole idea of truth is a lie

Some people are just so sad that they can’t even cry
Some people even think the whole idea of truth is a lie

There’s a lot of people talking round that no one wants to hear
The public tunes the public out ‘til the voices disappear
Everyone wants to change the world and no one cares about why
Such a lonely world out there it makes you want to cry
And that’s a harder way to live your life and a harder way to die
