Points of View Songtext
von Dial

Look at him, all alone
Who are we to leave him there?
What went wrong?
How could he just give it up and let it go?
Pushed around, searching warm
He took what was given him
Not enough for a man
Who lives his life on borrowed time
And a day pass by
What can I do to help?

I, I never thought I′d be like this
I always thought I'd be so like this
Shut out cold, not a chance
We turn our backs on his hand
Feeling guilt, feeling shame
Knowing that we could do much more
And the years pass by
How can we leave him there?


I assume, I′m in myself
I know what to do
I'm keeping track, I have the stack
Staying focused, I am not that maniac
I have my friends, I know my friends
They know what to do
They're keeping track, they′ve got the stack
They′re telling me I'm not that maniac

Am I losing it, keep forgetting it
What I came here to do
They keep telling me, can I hold the me
But the person that I reckon doesn′t sound like me
I ain't losing it, keep forgetting it
What I came here to do
I keep telling me, can I hold the me
But the person that I reckon doesn′t sound like me

Moving to a different place
Just come along and shut your face
Ruins from your past and now
Move along and I'll show you how
Where you did decide to be
The person that′s in front of me
But dreams are crumbled into dirt
But you don't dare to say it hurts
Pride and fear and dignity
Corrupting your morality


Another sip, another stuff
Show the world it ain't so tough
You don′t say stop, you don′t say no
Just hide your face, go with the flow
But where you smile, raise your hand
Your feet will slip, you'll lose your stand
And while you′re falling you will preach
To everyone within your reach
Of how you're constant in control
But pray that some will break your fall

And when your doorway slips away
And all your colors fade to gray
You realize you need someone
To step in
But everyone′s gone
