The Way Things Are
talk to me,
tell me why it is like it is
i can’t see
explain it to me
if i take a gun
and shoot myself dead
would i –
be achieving anything?
obviously not
to some people –
it makes sense
obviously they forgot
tell my why things –
are like they are
James Garratt – Sunday 30th October 1994
