Contradiction lyrics

Written by: S Lay/L Kent

Seventeen years in a dead end job
Telling his dreams to a deaf eared god
Hanging on tight by a single thread
Praying for a change

Everything you could have sacrificed
Your flesh and blood had it`s own sweet price
Baby`s all grown up and moved away
Where`s that leave you now

It was your own decision
You made my life your mission

Somebody tell me (it doesn`t make no sense at all)
Somebody tell me
Why we`re living in a world of contradiction
Somebody tell me (it doesn`t make no sense at all)
Somebody tell me
Why we`re living in a world of contradiction

Why is it so hard to be understood
Doing so much for the common good
Sorry if I didn`t see the truth
The sadness in your eyes

I wanted to stand on my own two feet
Looking at life as a one way street
Thinking that I had it all worked out
Where`s that leave me now

We lost communication
Too many expectations

Somebody tell me (it doesn`t make no sense at all)
Somebody tell me
Why we`re living in a world of contradiction
Somebody tell me (it doesn`t make no sense at all)
Somebody tell me
Why we`re living in a world of contradiction

Everything I have inside
I kept it wrapped up tight
All I know is
All I want to know is

Somebody tell me

Somebody tell me (it doesn`t make no sense at all)
Somebody tell me
Why we`re living in a world of contradiction
In a world of contradiction

Seventeen years in a dead end job
Telling his dreams to a deaf eared god
Hanging on tight by a single thread
Where`s that leave you now
