Points of View

THEY

Look at him, all alone

Who are we to leave him there? What went

wring? How could he just give it up and let it go?

Pushed around, searching warmth He took what

life on a borrowed time

And a day goes by

SOMEONE

What can I do to help?

HE

I, I never thought I´d be like me? I always thought

I´d be so why me? My self in control.

My life in control. My life!

THEY

Shut out cold. Not a chance

We turn our backs on his hand

Feeling guilt, feeling shame

Knowing that we could do much more

And the years pass by

SOMEONE

How can we leave him there?

I am my self, I know my self, I know what to do!

I´m keeping track, I have my stack.

Staying focused, I am not a maniac I have my

friends, I know my friends, they know what to

do! They´re keeping track they´ve got their stack,

they´re telling me I´m not a maniac

Am I loosing it? Keep forgetting it; what I came

here to do!

They keep telling me: get a hold of me, ´cause the

person in the mirror doesn´t look like me

THEM

Moving to a different place. Just come along and

shut your face

Through ruins from your past till now. Move along

and I´ll show you how and where you did decide

to be the "person" that´s in front of me

Where dreams were crumbled into dirt but you

don´t dare to say it hurts

Pride and fear and dignity, corrupting your

morality

Another sip another snuff, show the world it isn´t

so tough

You don´t say stop, you don´t say no

Just hide your face, go with the flow

But when you smile and raise your hand,

your feet will slip, you´ll loose your stand

And while you´re falling you will preach to

everyone within your reach of how you´re constant

in control, but pray that someone will break your fall

And when your doorway slips away and all your

colours fade to grey

You realize you need someone, you start to run but

everyone´s gone
