No Tears Left
(Stephen Stills)
So things have gotten weird for you
The foolish do the things they do
Mostly talk right at you without
speaking
They're deaf and blind and they
cannot think
But now theey want to be your shrink
Probing for the missing link and
freaking
And it's all about how you got
strange
Indifferent to their fear of change
And feeling strong enough to get you
peaking
It's my life and I, I have no tears
left
It's my life and I , well, I ain't
done yet
What do I have left
And you rage at their transparency
and total insincerity
That love is why they have to try and
help you
But mostly it's about control
They're terrified that you might go
and find out for yourself what they
can't teach you
It's my life....
Generations that go through this
The young are punished for their
disregard
For every fool who might want to lead
them
But living in the here and now
will cleanse the waste of sacred cows
that clutters up the path you might be
seeking
So go ahead and rage and fight
Insist on finding your own light
As wisdom cannot be confused by freedom
It's my life...

Young
