Hey God, I'm just a little man got a wife and family
But I almost lost the house, yeah I bought into the dream We're barely holding on when I'm in way too deep We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets She's a workin' single mom, like a saint she don't complain She never says a word, but she thinks that she's to blame Her son just got convicted, he blew some punk away She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way Chorus: Hey God - tell me what the hell is going on Seems like all the good shit's gone It keeps on getting harder hanging on Hey God, there's nights you know I want to scream These days you're even harder to believe I know how busy you must be, but Hey God.... Do you ever think about me Born into the ghetto in 1991, just a happy child Playing beneath the summer sun A vacant lot's his playground, by 12 he's got a gun The odds are bet against him, junior don't make 21 Chorus I'd get down on my knees, I'm going to try this thing your way Seen a dying man too proud to beg spit on his own grave Was he too gone to save? Did you even know his name? Are you the one to blame, I got something to say |

Outside this world keeps turnin' 'round
London Bridge keeps burnin' down but it'll be all right, oooh No one hears our silent screams In this land of broken dreams but it'll be all right, when she comes It'll be all right, when she comes It'll all be tight, when she comes And when I lie she still believes She don't ask why, she's there for me When it get's hard, she's all I need to get by I hear her voice in a thousand places I try so hard, still I can't escape it She's the one, when she comes, yeah And if the sky come fallin' down, I never ever even hear a sound It's true, she's as great a red as blue skies are blue Everything's all right, when she comes Everything's all tight, when she comes And when I lie she still believes She don't ask why, she's there for me When it gets hard, she's all I really need Everything's all right, when she comes It'll all be tight, when she comes When she comes It's all right, It's all right, when she comes It's all right, It's all right, when she comes It's all right, It's all right, It's all right, when she comes It's all right, It's all right, It's all right, when she comes |

So now it's over let the spot light fade
I hear the music slowly fade away And now I find it hard to say good-bye So I'll just say good night my friends The end (we'll be together) The end (we'll live forever) We'll all be together in the end The end (although it's over) The end (It's never over ) We'll all be together in the end If every moment is a memory A faded photograph of days gone by Can I take a little piece of you with me For when I leave this all behind The end (we'll be together) The end (we'll live forever) We'll all be together in the end The end (although it's over) The end (It's never over ) We'll all be together in the end Come on, Come on, Come on, Darling lay you head down... Come on, Come on, Come on, little Darling, help me baby, 'Cause I can't see the lights... I'm getting tired so I close my eyes I need to look at you just one more time And though it's over, it's never over Until I see you again The end (we'll be together) The end (we'll live forever) We'll all be together in the end The end (although it's over) The end (It's never over) We'll all be together in the end The end (we'll be together) The end (we'll live forever) We'll all be together in the end The end (although it's over) The end (It's never over) We'll all be together in the end |

I was walking around, just a face in the crowd
Trying to keep myself out of the rain Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam crown Wondered if I might end up the same There's a man out on the corner Singing old songs about change Everybody got their cross to bare, these days She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of dreams To a motel room on the boulevard I guess she's trying to be James Dean She's seen all the disciples and all the "wanna be's" No one wants to be themselves these days Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days These days - the stars seem out of reach These days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age There ain't nobody left but us these days Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to fly From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his eyes His momma said he was crazy - he said, "Momma, I've got to try. Don't you know that all my heroes died? And I guess I'd rather die than fade away." These days - the stars seem out of reach But these days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless age Even innocence has caught the midnight train And there ain't nobody left but us these days I know Rome's still burning Though the times have changed This world keeps turning round and round and round and round These days These days - the stars seem out of reach But these days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, love don't last in this graceless age Even innocence has caught the midnight train And there ain't nobody left but us these days These days - the stars seem out of reach These days - there ain't a ladder on the streets These days are fast, nothing lasts There ain't no time to waste There ain't nobody left to take the blame There ain't nobody left but us these days |
