I live in this world of lies
my body always cries
I don't know why I'm here
in this world I fear
no good seems to come to me
not that I can see
I feel I can do no good
why am I so misunderstood
is there a reason why I'm here
in my mind I can't think clear
so am I the only one who can see
that this world is coming down on me
