Seventeen years in a dead end job
Telling his dreams to a deaf eared god
Hangin' on tight by a single thread
Prayin' for a change
Everything you could have sacrificed
Your flesh and blood had it's own sweet price
Baby's all grown up and moved away
Where's that leave you now?
It was your own decision
You made my life your mission
Somebody tell me
(it doesnt make no sense at all)
Somebody tell me
Why we're living in a world of contradiction
Why is it so hard to be understood?
Doing so much for the common good
Sorry if I didn't see the truth
The sadness in your eyes
I wanted to stand on my own two feet
Looking at life as a one way street
Thinking that I had it all worked out
Where's that leave me now?
