I'm really trying to get some piece of mind
But the world just keeps on spinning
And I am starting to unwind
Teacher teaching children
to go out and get their own
But they forget about the heart
They forget about their souls
And it's hard to convince yourself
When your life been gauged
by power and wealth
You spend your whole life
trying to break free
From this society
So I climb up to a higher place
Where I am not bided by tradition
or ruled by any race
The system always pulls me down
Can't stand to set me free
Throw me right back in the masses
Said that's where you're gonna be
And it's hard to convince yourself
When your life been gauged
by power and wealth
You spend your whole life
trying to break free
From this society
Still dream a dream of humanity
Somewhere a world exists
in softly turned phrases
and melodies of bliss
Painted in a picture
of violets and blues
Stolen from the moment
when I first encounter truth
And it's hard to convince yourself
When your life been gauged
by power and wealth
You spend your whole life
trying to break free
From this society
And it's hard to convince yourself
When your life been gauged
by power and wealth
You spend your whole life
trying to break free
From this society
I have been really trying...
To get some piece of mind!
But the world just keeps on spinning
And I am starting to unwind
