What Good Am I?

Lyrics

What good am I if I'm like all the rest,
 ♪
 If I just turned away, when I see how you're dressed,
 ♪
 If I shut myself off so I can't hear you cry,
 ♪
 What good am I?
 ♪
 What good am I if I know and don't do,
 ♪
 If I see and don't say, if I look right through you,
 ♪
 If I turn a deaf ear to the thunderin' sky,
 ♪
 What good am I?
 ♪
 What good am I while you softly weep
 ♪
 And I hear in my head what you say in your sleep,
 ♪
 And I freeze in the moment like the rest who don't try,
 ♪
 What good am I?
 ♪
 What good am I then to others and me
 If I've had every chance and yet still fail to see
 If my hands tied must I not wonder within
 Who tied them and why and where must I have been
 ♪
 What good am I if I say foolish things
 ♪
 And I laugh in the face of what sorrow brings
 And I just turn my back while you silently die,
 ♪
 What good am I?
