Somewhere In This Town Tonight
Somewhere in this town tonight
there lives someone alone,
with darkened dreams of emptiness
to fill his empty home.
He cannot see the good in life
because his heart is blind,
and dwells about this uselessness
which hides inside his mind.
He finds fault in everyone
and everything as well,
and builds his walls from him and you
to live his little hell.
He cries about the world at war
the hunger and the pain,
and cries for all this pity
which hides inside his brain.
So if you find yourself like him
and if you feel he's right,
keep this in mind about your friend
he hung himself tonight.
