Why Me?
(专辑: The Living Years - 1988)
These are dangerous times that were living in and there are dangerous signs that were giving in to fear late one night, I'm lying here I
thought I
heard a
sound. Tell the
mothers and the
babes tell the
old, tell the
sick they will be safe get the
young males. Tell them to be brave I
was so concerned with saving live I
never saw you pull the
knife. High on the
mountains across seven seas All of the
people why me, why me? Do you feel so frustrated Frightened and feared answer my question Why me, why me, why me why me, why me, why me? You're such an angry young man with all your grievances people don't understand, they just can't understand what you must do to stay alive. So you try to justify all the
violence and hate, before your eyes. Through the
ages better men than you have tried to give what is not theirs to give to take the
land where others live. High on the
mountains across seven seas all of the
people why me, why me? Do you feel so frustrated frightened and feared answer my question why here, why now, why here, why now, hey here, why now, why me? Oh, for now you have the
power the
guns and all the
swords but nature has a
nasty habit of balancing her flaws. Now you may try to break my body lock me up and throw away the
key but you'll never break my spirit I'm free!
