Is That What It's All About

Could somebody give me an answer?
A solution to fill up my space
As I take a peep out of the hole in my window
I see a land that is filled with disgrace

Now, is it me, or did it used to seem better?
Now, a tear grows in every man's eye
But the tear never once reached the surface
And the tree which I climbed, slowly dies

Is that what it's all about?
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what it's all about?

A cure can't been found for my problem just yet
Behind the wrought iron gate, it is there, I bet
But the key was caught in a fisherman's net
With a dolphin the boy wanted for his pet

Well, I know I ain't getting no younger
Pretty soon, I guess I'll be extinct
And all that I'll leave to remember
Is this question I paused once to think

Is that what it's all about?
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what it's all about?

Put it behind you, turn a blind eye
Though you always know that it's here
Living your life through the line of defence
I stand for myself
Is that what it's all about?

Well, I know I ain't getting no younger
Pretty soon, I guess I'll be extinct
And all that I'll leave to remember
Is this question I paused once to think

Is that what it's all about?
Hiding our feelings away
Let the problem be that of another man
I'm living my life in this way
Far away from a troubled face
Is that what it's all about?
Is that what it's all about?
