Album: Can't Get There From Here

Hey Mister

(Jack Russell, Michael Lardie)
Lookin' back there's nothin' left to say
Wishin' that this life would slowly fade away
Dreams behind these eyes, no one could know, oh oh
But wake to find there's nowhere left to go
Hey Mister can't you see I'm feelin' so alone?
But then I don't think you'd understand
All I ever wanted was to live life unafraid
All I ever needed was some love
Stories told on weary cardboard signs
Eulogize the lives now left behind
Faces worn and etched with all despair
Passers by, they look but seldom care
Hey Mister can't you see the ring around the moon?
Maybe it's the water in my eyes
All I ever wanted was to live life unashamed
All I ever needed was some love
Livin' on the edge of sanity
Wonderin' how this ever came to be
Feelin' so unnecessary, gotta find some sanctuary
Hey buddy can you spare a dime?
Hey Mister can't you see I'm feelin' so abused?
But really, I don't think you'd understand
All I ever wanted was to live life, what I mean is
All I ever needed was someone
Hey Mister can't you see I'm just a man like you?
Who's tryin' hard to keep his dignity
Maybe if you could just walk a mile inside my shoes
You'd see that I just need a helping hand
Hey Mister please, hey Mister please, beggin' on my knees
Can anybody help me find my way?
