I'm not here to blame you You're so much like myself Someone that ignorance takes over And pushes down I too feel like strangled By will to do good But the choices are so many And every choice feels vain And everybody's scared And no one cares We just leave our problems lying there I am one of us And so are they And that makes us all Responsible Someday it will all shine through Modern fools we are sharing one voice I look towards my neighbour And shut my mouth So afraid of retorts Judging my intentions Don't you dare dis-speak about real life Before you sharpen up your punchlines And everybody's scared And no one cares
We just leave our problems lying there I am one of us And so are they And that makes us all Responsible Someday it will all shine through One tiny moment's revelation Seems it aches then fades to black Like cherries light up the ashtray Before the ash goes out And everybody's scared And no one cares We just leave our problems lying there I am one of us And so are they And that makes us all Responsible Everybody's scared And no one cares We just leave our problems lying there I am one of us And so are they And that makes us all Responsible Someday it will all shine through I was just a modern fool
