CRISIS
|
Words & Music By Nick Granato
|
|
Last night I got a phone call from my brother Joe
|
He said he wishes life would just leave him the hell alone,
|
He said he¡¯d do things different if he had another chance
|
I said to him you still can, he said, no I can¡¯t¡¦ Crisis
|
|
Well I was having lunch the other day with an old friend of mine
|
She said the guy she was seeing for months, had told her goodbye
|
She said she¡¯s too old for these games and she¡¯s running out of time
|
I said your no you¡¯re not, she said, I am¡¦. Crisis
|
|
I can see the worry lines embedded on their faces,
|
You don¡¯t have to look real hard it¡¯s easy to trace it
|
Broken dreams and promises that lead to desperation
|
Living through another no win situation ¡¦. Crisis¡¦ Crisis¡¦
|
|
On the news the other night they showed pictures of a war,
|
Well, It¡¯s hard to tell who¡¯s fighting who and what we¡¯re fighting for,
|
The commentary always seems to slant to someone¡¯s side
|
It seems we¡¯re all accustomed to this indifferent kind of life¡¦
|
Crisis¡¦
|
|
We¡¯ve got politics and world events keep our hearts beating faster
|
We¡¯ve all become so weary everyday we face disaster
|
We analyze, politicize, and criticize our trauma
|
With Talk shows, and radio, exploiting all the drama¡¦ Crisis... Crisis
|
|
Social rage and empathy, clouding up reality
|
Self absorbed philosophies, leading us to tragedy¡¦ <break>
|
|
Some of us look up to God for answers we can¡¯t find
|
And some of us blame someone else, while others are just blind
|
But if we choose to see the good, and we looked beyond ourselves
|
Life wouldn¡¯t feel so dark here, like we¡¯ve all fallen in a well¡¦.
|
Crisis¡¦ Crisis¡¦ Crisis¡¦.
