Lyrics
A broken man
With the stamp of time
Stumbles down the street
To the welfare line
We turn our heads
We refuse to see
The image of
His reality
We convince ourselves
That all is well
Cause we know that we don’t have
To live in that man’s hell
If we only knew
How quickly fortune turns
We’d stop thinking
There’s no reason for concern
A teenage girl
In the neon glare
Hides her pain
Behind a vacant stare
A car pulls up
And she climbs in
She believes where she’s going
Beats where she’s been
We convince ourselves
That all is well
Cause we know that we don’t choose
To live in that girl’s hell
If we only knew
How quickly fortune turns
We’d stop thinking
There’s no reason for concern
A little boy
Plays in the street without shoes
He smiles at me and I can
See his face is bruised
I turn my head
And look the other way
Cause I know things will
Be better for him someday
(Spoken)
A week goes by
I hang my head and cry
When I read in the paper
The little boy died
I can’t convince myself
That all is well
When I can see this crazy world
Is headed straight for hell
If we only knew how quickly fortune turns
We’d stop thinking
There’s no reason for concern
People look around
And tell me what you see
Don’t you think it’s time
To get in touch with reality
I don’t know how to change things
But I think it’s time to learn
Cause now I see that
There is reason for concern
How could anyone think
There’s no reason for concern
