lyrics
IT DOESN’T MATTER MUCH TO ME
I don’t have all the answers
I don’t know what I’ll learn along the way
All I know is that the answer’s hard to find
It Doesn’t Matter Much To Me
Even here there’s beauty
Hidden just beneath the ugliness
All the faces bare a common youth and innocence
It Doesn’t Matter Much To Me
Because my fate’s held with others
And there’s really not much left to lose
And the peace out there - well it seems so hard to find
It Doesn’t Matter Much To Me
And back home
There is blood in the streets
While mothers they weep
How can I even try to comprehend
And internalize this insanity of humanity?
Run through the gauntlet
And take your hits
There’s pain from both sides
One wants to kill you
The other side will take away your pride
Scared - scarred - stand guard - mind jarred
Pain steep - the wounds run so deep
Life - death - time theft - no rest
Monsoons - maybe they’ll end soon
Woodstock – contrast to this shock
Bomb blast - night flash - green stash
Win - lose - is this whole thing a ruse?
Ah run through the gauntlet
And take your hits
There’s pain from both sides
One wants to kill you
The other side will take away your pride
Scared - scarred - stand guard - mind jarred
Pain steep - the wounds run so deep
Life - death - time theft - no rest
Monsoons - maybe they’ll end soon
Woodstock – contrast to this shock
Bomb blast - night flash - green stash
Win - lose – won’t you stand in my shoes?
