It's hard enough to be alone It's harder still to spend so long Looking for happiness And feeling so restless I know you feel like I do too And even though I'm close to you I can't be what you need 'Cause you're just as lost as me And I just want to get high But everyone keeps bringin' me down If you know something I don't Come on and help me out But I just don't understand How the world keeps goin' nowhere There's still so many people poor Can't get my head around this wars All of this senselessness I'm feeling so helpless So many people live and die And never even question why All of their dreams are gone How do they carry on? I would like some peace of mind I've got such a heavy heart And you were broken down before You had a chance to start And I just don't understand How the world keeps goin' nowhere I just want to get high But everyone keeps bringin' me down And if you know something I don't Come on and help me out But I just don't understand How the world keeps goin' nowhere
