Considering so many folks
Dissatisfied with everything
Who need someone to understand
They're lonely, they're lonely
And they're not alone
And everywhere they shrug their shoulders
Tell themselves that they don't care
And all the while they make believe
They're happy, oh they're happy
But not really
And they're asked to hold the world together
Make it happen, give it children
Who in turn are turning on to going nowhere
And all the strength they'd ever need to help them
Has been wasted, remains hidden
In the confusion of going nowhere
And who am i to criticize
The world that i have grown up in

Most of you would tell me
That i'm crazy, yes i'm crazy
I can't help it
I understand that where you are
Is where you've been so many years
And things that tend to change you
Tend to hurt you, yes they hurt you
Very deeply
And still you try to hold the world together
Make it happen, give it children
Who in turn are turning on to going nowhere
And all the strength they'd ever need to help them
Has been wasted, remains hidden
In the confusion of going nowhere
Going nowhere
Going, going
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
