Where Songs Don’t Sing

2000

 

Wandering the streets on a cold and rainy night

I can't help but realize that nothing seems right

I come to a fork that's in the road

I look both ways but I don't know where to go

 

But we're living where the songs don't sing

And every insult to me makes a sting

Where is it that I can go from here

I don't want to live out my greatest fear

 

Behind the mask that covers his face

Lies a man with a thousand reasons to leave this place

In many ways he is a lot like me

Looking to leave a place with such stupidity

But if there's a better land out there

And here's so bad, why should we care

We can simply pack up and fade away

But there's too much that I want to do today

 

But we're living where the songs don't sing

And every insult to me makes a sting

Where is it that I can go from here

I don't want to live out my greatest fear

 

The people who are so weird and bent

Seem to me like nothing more than a Satan-sent

Your only friends have turned their backs on you

You think as hard as you can but don't know what to do

 

But we're living where the songs don't sing

And every insult to me makes a sting

Where is it that I can go from here

I don't want to live out my greatest fear

 

I just don't know what to do anymore

Sometimes I lay thinking on the floor

There's only one thing I can say and promise

I can't find a way from all of this

But we're living where the songs don't sing

And every insult to me makes a sting

Where is it that I can go from here

I don't want to live out my greatest fear
