Blues

Is this the New Year or just another night?

Is this the new fear or just another fright?

Is this the new tear or just another desperation?

Is this the finger or just another fist?

Is the kingdom or just a hit and miss?

I've missed direction

most in all this desperation

Is this what they call freedom?

Is this what you call pain?

Is this what they call discontented fame?

It'll be a day like this one

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

I'm singing this one

like a broken piece of glass

For broken arms and broken noses in the back

Is this the new year

or just another desperation?

You push until you're shoving

You bend until you break

Do you stand on the broken fields

where your fathers lay?

It'll be a day like this one

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

(ah)

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

There's nothing here worth saving

There's no one here at all

Is there any night life

that could break our fall?

It'll be a day like this one

When the sky falls down

And the hungry and poor

and desserted are found

Are you discontented?

Have you been pushing hard?

Have you been throwing down

this broken house of cards?

It'll be a day like this one

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

When the world caves in

Is there nothing left now?

Nothing left to sing?

Are there any left now

who haven't kissed The Enemy?

Is this the new year

or just another desperation?

Ah

Does justice ever find you?

Do the wicked ever lose?

Is there any other song

And nothing is okay

Till' the world caves in

Till' the world caves in

Till' the world caves in

Till' the world caves in

Till' the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in

Until the world caves in
