Looking up wondering why
Why no answers in the sky
If there was one thing I could ask
It would be: "show me where to start"

I'm down here walking in a maze
high walls rise to meet my gaze
I've lost my bearings, lost my mind
Go take my eyes; I'd be less blind

My head is spinning round
I hit the ground
Then the whole world turns upside down

O, no It doesn't seem fair
Cause all I can see above me
Are questions in the air
No It doesn't seem fair
Cause all I can see above me
Are questions in the air

Slowly struggling to my feet
I feel so helpless, feel so weak
A newborn baby in a man
Someone please help me understand

I've now forgotten everything
Did I commit an awful sin?
Is this a court or something worse
Cause if it is, my head will burst

No answers close to hand
In this strange land
My mind lets go its final strand

O, no It doesn't seem fair
....
close
