Nothing Is Bothering Me

[Verse 1]
No news is good news but news is here to stay
Tightening the thumbscrews from day to day
I hear the tale of a distant fray
War is hell but it's half a world away

[Chorus]
And I'm alright
Nothing is bothering me
I'm just trying to keep the weight of this world
From dawning on me

[Verse 2]
We get the picture from week to week
The rich get richer and inherit the meek
Long since started preying on the weak
Am I the guilty party if I turn the other cheek?

[Chorus]
I'm alright
Nothing is bothering me
I'm just trying to keep the weight of this world
From dawning on me

[Verse 3]
Hey now emotion, is that you again?
Don't you know that warmth and devotion have passed as a trend
Jesus is knocking but don't let him in
He might come like a thief and steal away your sin

[Chorus]
I'm alright
Nothing is bothering me
I'm just trying to keep the weight
Of this world from dawning on me
