What good am I - if I'm like all the rest
|
If I just turn away - when I see how you're dressed
|
If I shut myself off - so I can't hear you cry
|
What good am I?
|
|
What good am I - if I know and don't do
|
If I see and don't say - if I look straight through you
|
If I turn a deaf ear - to the thundering sky
|
What good am I?
|
|
What good am I - while you softly weep
|
And I hear in my head - what you say in your sleep
|
And I freeze in the moment - like the rest who don't try
|
What good am I?
|
What good am I?
|
|
What good am I then - to others and me
|
If I've had every chance - and yet still fail to see
|
With my hands tied must I - not wonder within
|
Who tied them and why - and where must I have been?
|
|
What good am I if I say foolish things
|
And I laugh in the face - of what sorrow brings
|
And I just turn my back - while you silently die
|
What good am I?
|
What good am I?
|
What good am I?
|
