about

This song is the first track by Buck Pipre, released as a single before appearing on the album "Pipre". It is a song written about Buck Pipre's view of many people that surround him in life.

lyrics

You say things I easily could have guessed
And you guess that you're not like all the rest
You say "I love you my baby the best"
But guess what, he means just like the rest

And you say your pains get worse and worse with time
But the problems you feel are just as mine
You feel life slip, you feel it as you fall
And you'll rot away with nothing left at all

You're not what your parents would have seen
A doctor nor a lawyer will you be
A circus act instead, and you will be
The greatest one to ever have been seen

And you say things you know you didn't mean
Being in control is never as it seems
Death it seems, is not known til you're there
This life we lead can sometimes be unfair

And sometimes I stand alone and I cry
This life I know will someday pass me by
You pray hard, but nothing seems to work
The meaning now is nothing but with dirt
