What Good Am I
What good am I - if I'm like all the rest If I just turn away - when I see how you're dressed If I shut myself off - so I can't hear you cry What good am I? What good am I - if I know and don't do If I see and don't say - if I look straight through you If I turn a deaf ear - to the thundering sky What good am I? What good am I - while you softly weep And I hear in my head - what you say in your sleep And I freeze in the moment - like the rest who don't try What good am I? What good am I? What good am I then - to others and me If I've had every chance - and yet still fail to see With my hands tied must I - not wonder within Who tied them and why - and where must I have been? What good am I if I say foolish things And I laugh in the face - of what sorrow brings And I just turn my back - while you silently die What good am I? What good am I? What good am I?
