Bad Desperation Lyrics

I see a man frustrated with his life

Hear the cry of people in distress

Imminent war creeping in the back door

Human sacrifice happening every day

The other cheek's been slapped again

Somewhere there's got to be an end

Look for comfort in your eyes

But everyone's miles away

Knowing you can't go back

Holding on to today

Bad desperation

Why do I go on pretending things are fine

I guess the truth hurts too much

And I'm wasting my time

Battles at sea drag bodies to a shore

And the people on the beach grieve for the unknown

But it's not because he's one of our boys

But that he was a man just like you and I

So many people with no life at all

Living on the streets, we can't look them in the eye

This is what our rat race has caused

It's grown like a monster destroying our lives

Sometimes it seems like

Too many troubles dragging us down

Down down close to the end

And I'm sad that it's gone this way

Huddled in a corner two girls cry

Hearing screams watching their friend die

Passers by they're aware

Lend no help they just don't care

The world is lonely and it's cold

Never have any fun it's getting old

With that gun to your head you'll never survive

Ain't gonna get me down now

Cause you're out of my life
