It's Hard Enough To Find A Friend
You ask ..where might we be going?
You ask ..what it is that makes a man?
You ask ..which way's this river flowing?
You ask ..can we talk and make a plan?
You ask ..why don't I belong here
You ask ..did I have a home?
You ask ..the nature of illusion
You ask ..will I always be alone?
But no, nobody knows the answer
Nobody knows how the road, it bends
No, nobody has the answer
It's hard enough to find a friend
You ask ..am I just too touchy?
You ask ..is the coral really dead?
You ask ..how can anyone be fussy
About what they eat when so many go unfed
You ask ..are we blind to other's suffering?
Or is the world's heartbreaks too much for one to take
You ask ..how long will love stay buffering?
While hatred drowns the fish out of the lake
But no, nobody comes with answers
When there's so few on whom you can depend
No, nobody has the answer
It's hard enough to be a friend
You ask ..where might we be going?
You ask ..what it is that makes a man?
You ask ..which way's this river flowing?
You ask ..can we talk and make a plan?
You ask ..why don't I belong here
You ask ..did I have a home?
You ask ..the nature of illusion
You ask ..will I always be alone?
But no, nobody knows the answer
Nobody knows how to read the signs
No, nobody has the answer
It's hard enough just being alive
But what does that mean ..if meaning ..we don't find ..
What does that mean, if meaning, we don't find ..
You'll wonder about the things you were told were fair
When going one way, there's nothing but a turnstile
But the other, full on border control
