When? — текст песни (Bad Religion)

I`ve seen a lot of things in five years.
I struggle just to hold back the tears.
But everyfuckingwhere I go,
I see the pathos that I know
Will spell the termination of us all.
Someone`s got to tell me, do you see
That everything around you has a hidden tragedy?
Seeds of happiness have never
Found a place to grow,
And our generation doesn`t know.
When, when will you try
To change the logarithmic face of kissing things goodbye?
When, when will you know
That human life is so short and death is oh so slow?
I`ve tried to make things make sense but I can`t.
I`m happy just to watch them all and laugh.
And if you think you`ve got it made,
Just revel in your selfish ways,
`Cuz when the world stops turning so will you!
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah.
