No life we're living when there's no time for giving
 
  
  No sign of loving in this age of push and shoving.
 
 Another boy with a broken heart
  
  
 
 can't you see the pressure tearing me apart?
 
 Oh
 
 there's so much for me to overcome
  
 
 should I stay and fight?
 
 Well
 
 where else is there I can run?
  
 
 How can I get out? There's no way I can get out!
 
 How can I get out? There's no way I can get out!
 
 How can I get out? There's no way I can get out!
 
 How can I get out? There's no way I can get out!
  
 
 No life we're living when there's no time for giving
  
 
 No reassuring can end what I'm enduring.
 
 I'm looking hard for the slightest sign
  
 
 Hear your words echoing around my mind.
 
 I'm starting to believe what the papers say
  
 
 Yet one more blow and I'm reeling but can't run away.
  
 
 How can I get out? There's no way I can get out!
 
 How can I get out? There's no way I can get out!
  
 
 And if you'd open your eyes
 
 you'd know there's so much you could do.
 
 Oh
 
 if you'd open your eyes
 
 you'd make a thousand wishes come true.
 
 Well
 
 this must be one of the troubles
 
 of a-living in forgotten town.
 
 Don't get me wrong
  
 
 hear the hollow words a-ringing now the chips are down.
  
 
 No life we're living when there's no time for giving

 How can I get out? There's no way I can get out! . . .
  
 
 And if you'd open your eyes you'd know
 
 there's so much you could do. . . .
 
 Well
 
 this must be one of the troubles

 Don't get me wrong
