WHAT HAS HAPPEN

What has happen to Johnny

I see him on the porch steps crying

Haven't seen him smile

For such along time

He is talking about giving in

Feeling like he has no friends

His mind has him reaching for the end

What has happen to Sussie

She tried to find true love

But was left alone with a baby

Now what about the baby

Repeating the same old thing

Giving in to society's wishes

Were is the best the world has to give

Was it even here

With all man's fears

He can't hear the truth

Always wanting proof

What has happen to Cid

The doctor said there isn't much time to live

He has made his own fate

He has no one to blame

But the direction he has made

What has happen to Mama

Alone crying

Over her son's dead body

Life and death

Has it's own timing

Where is the best the world has to give

Is it caught in society's trends

Or caught in the lust of human flesh

Have we forgotten were we've been

And were we are going

What has happen to this world we live in

As it reaches it's end

All used up, all used out

What has happen to all of us
