| | You light up again, thinking you've lost your way The world is the same, and the sun betrays You walk down the streets, the poor is unchanged They ask you for some, and you make the exchange Their eyes are filled with rain, And you know your's reflect the same pain How did you get this way?
The shadow by the buildings, hiding people's faces You climb those steps, and run the same race Sitting in your seat, you experience no gain All the decaying hurt, they still remain How did you get this way?
Life is a mystery, but you can't carry on Your heart has left, and your passion's gone Drink another shot just to pass away, Thinking some day you'll start to pray You wait for your death, but the end comes too slow You get a little closer, but your desires they show How did you get this way?
Losing your faith, you shatter your dreams Pick another fight, you switch to the other team When he falls, you throw another punch Though the blood flows, you jab for the crunch The death of a boy, you've crossed the line Ever so still, you stand there observing Telling yourself it's just another being How did you get this way?
Monday morning comes, and it all feels the same You make another choice, waking up to the shame There are some things you just can't explain You try to leave, but you're bound by your chains How did you get this way? |
