What Does It Mean / Album Proper Perspective / March 01 2015
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey
(v1)
What does it mean
When you’re not allowed to dream
When your day ends
Just like it began
Still hungry
Barely able to stand
(v2)
What does it say
When so many turn away
To the suffering
No one lends a hand
No compassion
It’s hard to understand
(chorus)
Who are we
Pretending not to see
The overwhelming pain
The pouring down rain
That douses the flame
Who are we
To stand by so idly
(v3)
Who are they
That seem to get their way
Holding others down
With little regard
It’s a shame
Life shouldn’t be so hard
(v4)
What does it mean
To be caught in-between
The boundaries
Of freedom and oppression
Do you run and hide or do you act
That is …. the question
(chorus)
