when i look out my window
i see a big old empty world
its full of all these peopel
but where is there soul
everyone has a boss
they always do what there told
they don't know what they've lost
because there heart has grown cold
money can buy iteams
but it cant buy you love
freinds, you cant buy them
and trust doesnt come with a shove
life doesnt fit on a scquedule
and its changing all the time
you should live for the moments
because life does have a deadline

i just watch the news everyday and see in everyday life that people get so absorbed in there job and forget whats really important to them. all people seem to care about is money,money,money. dont you want to look back on your life in your old age and realize that you did some good in the world
