WHAT HAS THIS WORLD GOT TO OFFER ME?
1993

Does the world seem dull and grey?
And escape impossible in every way?
Your problems never seem to end...
And you think you're going round the bend.
But then the reason slaps your face...
You're just another hopeless case!
When things just go 'round in your head,
And you start to wish that you were dead,
When nobody seems to care,
It's then you realise: You're going nowhere!
But when the damage has been done,
You feel the battle's lost, yet won.
When all your anger has spilled out,
There's just one thing. One tiny doubt...
What has this world got to offer me?
Who am i supposed to be?
You think it's only you that dares,
But really, it's only you that cares.
I really feel out of place,
The odd one out in the human race.
Why do i feel so isolated?
Why is life so over rated?
