When I look all around me,   It's not hard to see what's goin' on,   The bad guys get the sympathy,   And it's hard to tell what's right from wrong      There's a fire on the city streets,   It's eclipsing the moon,   But it's all just a haze to me anyway,   Everything gets so confused      And it's blurring my sight,   Spinning round on the wheel of life,   Feel so alone here tonight,   Here in the shadows of my mind's eye   Trying to see what's going on,   Then understand what's going wrong      You went off with the pirates,   And they took you to lunch,   To a greasy spoon diner,   And got you so drunk      Saw your face in a newsflash,   On the evening news,   You should never have been there,   So they had you removed      And it's blurring my sight,   Spinning round on the wheel of life,   Feel so alone here tonight,   Here in the shadows of my mind's eye    Trying to see what's going on,   Then understand what's going wrong
