hey, world

hey, world, look at me

I'm someplace I'm not supposed to be

I am not lost, I am not found

instead I'm just hanging around

waiting for the sun to shine

brightly on this life of mine

hey, world, here I am

all mixed up and in a jam

somewhere where trouble won't remind me

of all the places you have found me

I'm somewhere in the great unknown

not wanting to go back home

          where am I supposed to turn

          when I've got all my lessons learned

          I know I'm none of your concern

          but can you help me?

hey, world, where do I go

when life is someplace I don't know

and all I do is look around

ears wide open for the sound

of history and mystery inside my head

it's much better than what's there instead

hey, world, look at me

I'm somewhere I'm not supposed to be

I swear every word is true

as I spend my time looking for you

and waiting for the sun to shine

brightly on this life of mine
