I know a man who can hardly get along.
He lives his life in fear of doing something wrong.
Since his youth, it was pounded in his head
He must obey everything that some wise prophet said.
He's doing everything he can
To make himself a decent man.
But if he only understood.
He's sacrificed more than he should.
This man, he's never had a friend.
Only acquaintances, he says hello to now and then.
If they got to close they might see his other side.
He can't think for himself; He's never even tried.
He's doing everything he can
to make himself a decent man.
But if he only understood.
He's sacrificed more than he should
That poor guy, he can't even see
Past his "perfect" world and his morality.
He'll never meet someone and see where it will go
Cuz he can't get past some old book that told him no.
He's doing everything he can
To make himself a decent man.
But if he only understood.
He's sacrificed more than he should.
