about

"There's just no sympathy in this godforsaken world"

lyrics

Today I have lost my nobility
Today I've become the new class clown
I risked everything in the search for justice
Now all I want to do is get up and leave this town

CHORUS:
They see I'm drowning
But they think there's nothing they can do
There's just no sympathy in this godforsaken world
It may sound disheartening, but believe it or not it's true.
Stop the madness! Just start moving!
No more sadness! No more losing!
No more wasted time sitting around
Searching for answers that never get found

All I wanted was to share an opinion
With somebody I called my friend
But they took my words and put them through a blender
Now I'm standing too close to the end

CHORUS

Don't know why, but somehow I care too much
I've still got ten fingers, but I feel I'm losing my touch
Stepping out of line from the game where nobody wins
It's a new world of losers, wars and computers,
and I'm on the outside looking in

Don’t put trust in folks you don’t speak to
‘Cause one day that trust will just get thrown away
It’s times like these I get frozen
So full of rage that I don’t know what to say

CHORUS
