Why Are You?
Why are you...
Watching, waiting
listening
to what's next
Hurrying, planning
ignoring
all that is life
judging, measuring
cursing
future events
Wanting, lusting
discovering
life's ease
Forgetting, obtaining
creating
easy methods
concerning, jesting
hurting
everything around
seeing
but unknowing
the broken man
hearing
but ignoring
the cry for help
Becoming, uprising
achieving
what you are
seeking, craving
loving
forgot the words
believing, earning
deciding
on the unknown
building, uncovering
Yearning
the old passages
Touching
but not grasping
our ideas
Crying
can't understand
why it's you
