Hanging Around

I walked around alone last night And tried to look at people like I did back then I kinda wanted just to hang out Remind myself what it was all about again Everything I thought I shattered And left laying there that didn't matter Every now and then comes back to my eyes Moving in a new direction I know if you're not getting better You're getting worse But watching everybody else It's getting harder to remind myself of what I've learned Relying on another lame religion To validate our arrogant traditions And any day, we're gonna wonder why we've been left behind This girl came up to me And said, "I think my teacher used to go to school with you" And she was right And if for just a second I take off these colored glasses I can see it might just be a waste of time, a waste of time And I don't know Every day that passes, it gets easier to walk off And it seems all right And every day, another person I used to call my friend Just disappears from sight Now I see that I'm alone Just like I always was from the beginning And I think maybe that's the reason I'm not hanging around I see your face And wonder where you'll be five years from now And what it really means to you inside I can't explain the reasons why I can't sit back and bide my time It just keeps going on and on and on and on and on And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know And I don't know
