The Problem

Oh my my – the armies move along the street
Oh my my – the fires blaze with heavy heat
I look around to see someone to take the blame
I want to know – who is the cause of all this pain

Tell me why the world has gone and lost its way
Tell me what is wrong & who I can blame
There's a reason for the troubles that I see
There's a problem with this world – but it's not me

Who crossed the line from good to bad, and bad to worse?
Who hurt the ones he loved and put his own needs first?
It must be someone who can lie and cheat with ease
It must be someone with a problem that runs deep

Does someone know the fool?
This outright criminal
Yeah can you find the cheat for me?

We'll punish all the little things that he has done
And make him pay for every time he got it wrong
There's a reason for the troubles that I see
There's a problem with this world – but it's not me

Tell me - why do the waters run dry?
Who caused the hole in the sky?
All the broken hearts that cry
And the ones who go hungry every night – Tell my why?

I sit down stunned, there's no words that I can find
The heavy hand of justice has made up his mind
There's a reason for the troubles that I see
The final verdict has come down – the problem's me.
