(v. reid, c. glover, w. calhoun, m. skillings)

I see you crying in the sunshine

I hear you laughing in the rain

You say you can't tell any difference

Between the pleasure and the pain

You say you never ever dream at night time

You say you only dream when you're awake

And say that t.v. looks like your life

And the life you lead is fake

Desperate people

Desperate people

You get your sunshine from a tab of paper

Then you're sitting in a spinning room

The clock is tocking and it's laughing at you

Your life's a mystery without a clue

The crowd you're in thinks you're so amusing

They're oh so flattering and so sincere

They stand and laugh as they watch you crumble

And when you cry for help they don't hear

Desperate people

Desperate people

You feel the earth revolving

You see the sun dissolving

You hear the night calling out to you

You have no direction and you have no protection

What you gonna do when your trip turns blue?

When you come crashing down and there's no help around

You need friends, you need help

But first you have to help yourself

The music stops and the party's over

The money's gone and your crowd is too

Can't break the chains that have kept you under

Has the monkey got the best of you?

I see you crying in the sunshine

I hear you laughing in the rain

You say you can't tell any difference

Between the pleasure and the pain

Desperate people
