It Seems - NOTHING MORE

Alone in the room, tv on

Like the white screen his life's gone

A moving shell, a wandering ghost

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

His reflection's a stranger

Back it won't stare

It's like everybody else

Just too busy for 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

He wonders how anyone survives

Being overlooked and trite

He said he wants to die

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

Now stand tall, prove all

Push on, now you see

It's your life, It's your fight

Live free, don't hide

You've got to believe
