Desperation - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

When rain drops fall and you feel low

Ah, do you ever think it's useless, do you feel like letting go?

Do you ever sit, and do you wonder, "Will the world ever change?

And just how long will it take to have it all rearranged?"

Tell me why these things are still the same

Tell me why no one can seem to learn from mistakes

Take my hand if you don't know where you're goin'

I'll understand, I've lost the way myself

Oh, don't take that old road, mm, it leads to nowhere

We must return before the clock strikes twelve

It's so easy to do nothin' when you're busy night and day

Take a step in one direction, uh-huh, and take a step the other way

So don't quit tryin' when you stumble, don't give up, should you fall

Keep on searchin' for the passway that will lead you through the wall

Don't look back or you'll be left behind

Don't look back or you will never find peace of mind

Take my hand if you don't know where you're goin'

I'll understand, I've lost the way myself

Oh, don't take that old road, it leads to nowhere

We must return before the clock strikes twelve

Take my hand if you don't know where you're goin'

I'll understand, I've lost the way myself

Don't take that old road, oh, it leads to nowhere

We must return before the clock strikes
