optimistic

For generations I've been searching for something
If I could only trace the shadows that keep roaming round my head
I could paint a perfect picture
Maybe something that wasn't so lonely
I know it's not just me
It's just unlikely
That anybody really cares about the things I have to say and all the ways that there are to participate
Who had the thought that life would be better if we glorify the top of the ladder?

Does this shit even matter
Blinded by the lights but what shines isn't right
I wanna run away
I got a lot to say but is anybody listening?
I wanna run away
I got a lot to say but is anybody listening?
I wanna run away
I got a lot to say but is anybody

While I have you here
Hold my hand and help me understand this cruel world we are living in
Divided in two
Strip me down to my bones no possessions or clothes
I still want the same things as you

Freedom to love
Freedom to be
Exist equally
Make peace and smoke tree

I wish that shit really mattered

Blinded by the lights but what shines isn't right
I wanna run away
I got a lot to say but is anybody listening?
I wanna run away
I got a lot to say but is anybody listening?
I wanna run away
I got a lot to say but is anybody listening?
Is anybody listening?
Is anybody listening?
