BOTTOM LINE

Music & Lyrics by Jason Yudoff

Oh it’s all too easy
if you keep it simple enough
But when I smile sometimes
I don’t know where it came from
Watch me close another chapter
as I say goodnight
and walk out the door
Then see me struggle in vain
to get back to the place I was before

Tell me why is it feast or famine
Why is it always black or white
Where is my comfort
The blood on my hands is dragging me down
and I can’t wash it away

I feel so helpless
like a child who’s lost his way
Just carry on the conversation
you know I don’t have much to say
If people make me happy
tell me why do I feel so alone
My passions are getting twisted
is it time to run away from home

Yeah I’ll play the games
but I have to wonder
Just who the hell is making the rules
Just passed ‘Go’ Give me two hundred
You know it’ll find it’s way back to you
Now that I’ve seen the face
I know what I’ve got to do
I’ve got to keep myself focused
on the task at hand
While never deviating from the master plan
I’ve got three good reasons for you not to try
Where is the bottom line
