It Seems

Alone in the room, TV's on Like the white screen, his life's gone A moving shell, a wandering ghost Oh, a shadow of a man who nobody knows He hardly speaks when you say his name He's just embarrassed to say Anything to anyone In his mind there's no way out He said he wants to die He wonders how anyone survives Being overlooked and Trite As seasons change And trees grow bare Reflection's a stranger Back it won't stare It's like everybody else Just too busy for his simple self His simple self He walks 13 blocks to the city's cross Puts dust on his knees Prays for a God that doesn't leave It's lonely here in hell He prays to be somebody else In his mind there's no way out He said he wants to die (No way out) He wonders how anyone survives Being overlooked and trite, yeah He said he wants to die And wonders why, he wonders how anyone survives Being overlooked and trite In the sand he sinks to his knees Mobile world around, just out of reach Tears rolling down his cheeks He has to believe, believe in himself Put up, hold out Break down, scream loud Wave fists, and shout It's done, it's done Stand tall, prove all Push on, now you see It's your life, it's your fight Live free, don't hide (You've gotta believe) He said he wants to die (You've gotta believe) (You've gotta believe) How anyone survives (You've gotta believe) You've gotta believe
