I Can’t Take Much More

I found myself crawling
Through the dead end of town
The sirens screaming
Round and round
A burned-out apartment -
An insurance fire
I guess the price of life
Ain’t getting higher

I can’t take much more of this
And I can’t stand
What I see
I can’t take much more of this
And I can’t sit
And watch ‘em bleed

I saw the lost soul
Roaming through the streets
Just barely getting by
Nothing to eat
And driving by in a
Big limousine
They sneered and scoffed at
This pathetic scene

I can’t take much more of this
And I can’t stand
What I see
I can’t take much more of this
And I can’t sit
And watch ‘em bleed

Gone so bad, gone so wrong
Well I got no place I don’t belong
Got a box for a house, under the freeway
Well my kids get shot
Every day

Guns and
Kids
Drugs and
Pain
Too
Many lives
Down
The drain

I can’t take much more of this
And I can’t stand
What I see
I can’t take much more of this
And I can’t sit
And watch ‘em bleed
I can’t take much more of this
(Can’t take much more of this)
And I can’t stand
What I see
I can’t take much more of this
(I can’t take much more of this)
And I can’t sit
And watch ‘em bleed
