What For
I've asked my angels, why?But they don’t knowWhat for do mothers cryAnd rivers flow?Why are the skies so blueAnd mountains high?What for is your love always passing by?
I’ve asked my uncle JoeBut he can't speakWhy does the wind still blow?And blood still leaks?So many questions nowWith no replyWhat for do people live until they die?
What for are we living?What for are we crying?What for are we dying?Only Mr. God knows whyWhat for are we living?What for are we dreaming?What for are we losing?Only Mr. God knows why
(But) His phone today is out of range
The sun in colour blackIs rising highThe time is turning backI wonder whySo many questions nowWith no replyWhat for do people live until they die?
