	I used to think I knew 
	    What the world was all about
	I used to think I knew
	    Where people hurt...

	I used to belive that anyone or anybody
	    Was capable of knowing what was wrong

	and I used to want to stop the pain and want.


	But the years have made me tired
	    And the embers are dying out
	And even if I wanted to
	    I think I'm too old to care...

	If I had a son
	    I think that I could live
	And if I had a daughter
	    I think that I could give

	But in a world that lacks any sense
	    Could he make a difference?

	Would anybody listen?
	Would anybody Care?

	Would anybody want to try to change?

	Or does everybody feel as old as I?




	Just another late night rambling from gatech!itc!parris...   Parris
