Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All of these years and my life is still
Just trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I've realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
[PreChorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I, I'm feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake up in the morning, and I step outside
And I take a deep breath, and I get real high, and I
Scream at the top of my lungs, "What's going on?"
[Chorus]
And then I say, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey," I say, "Hey, what's going on?"
Then I say, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey," I say, "Hey, what's going on?"
[Verse 2]
And I try, oh my God, do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my God, do I pray
I pray every single day, for a resolution
[PreChorus]
And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out, what's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar
[Chorus]
And so I wake up in the morning, and I step outside
And I, take a deep breath, and I get real high, and I
Scream at the top of my lungs, "What's going on?"
And then I say, "Hey, hey, hey hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, I say, "Hey, what's going on?"
Then I say, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey," I say, "Hey, what's going on?"
[Bridge]
Then I say, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey," I say, "Hey, what's going on?"
Then I say, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey," I say, "Hey, what's going on?"
[Outro]
After all these years my life is still
Trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
