[Verse 1] I don't know what's goin on, I've got my own problems to deal with, I have more than I can handle, I've got bills and I've got debt, I see beggars on the corner, but I can't give when nothing's left, And I see problems from afar, but they haven't reached me yet I look out for me & mine, and I do it without regrets... [Pre-Chorus] It's got nothing to do with me, It's not a problem I can see... [Chorus] I don't have the time or energy, to see beyond myself, I don't have the means or the strength, to be of any help, I can't change the way things are, I can't even get by on my own, I can't even help myself, let alone another soul, But someday that will change... [Verse 2] I hear sirens in the distance, but I tune them out at night, I tell myself it's normal now, just part of everyday life. Every headline feels exhausting, every choice feels like a test, So I pick the ones that let me sleep and bury all the rest. I say, “Someone else will handle it, someone braver, someone strong,” I swear it won’t come down to me — I swear it won’t be long… [Pre-Chorus] It’s always somewhere down the road, Always someone else I don’t know… [Chorus] I don't have the time or energy to see beyond myself, I don't have the means or the strength to be of any help, I can't change the way things are, I can't even get by on my own, I can't even help myself, let alone another soul, But someday that will change… [Bridge] I keep telling myself it’s temporary, just a rough stretch, just a phase. But the signs don’t feel so distant now, they’re harder to explain away. I used to think awareness was enough, that knowing meant I’d done my part— now I’m not so sure what knowing is if it never leaves a mark. [Final Chorus] I still don’t have the time or energy to carry everyone, I still don’t have the answers or the nerve to lead anyone, But I can’t keep saying none of this belongs to me, I can’t keep calling this surviving if it’s all I ever see. I don’t know how, I don’t know when, I don’t know what it takes— But I know it doesn’t change at all If I’m the one who waits. [Outro] I can’t fix everything that’s broken, but I won’t stand aside again. If silence helped create this mess, then this is where I step in.
