Why does it have to be this way?, by Steve Thompson Subscribe to rss feed for Steve Thompson

I can't explain what's going on in the world
But I know I'm just a shell of a man
I can't tell you why people do what they do
But I know i'm just a shadow
I don't know why it has to be this way
I want to do something, but hey
I'm alone in the world with no one behind me
No one that can see, that this is not right
Why do we have to fight?
I don't care about the government
They don't speak for me
They can't see
Why does it have to be this way?
Is this pain going to stay?
We must end this now, and take a vow
Never to stoop this low again
I don't know why it has to be this way
This hate isn't going to stay
Because I won't let it take over me
'Cause I...
I can see
