|
We all know sadness |
|
And I feel your pain |
|
Well everybody knows a little loneliness sometimes' |
|
Cause we're all the same |
|
We all have sorrow |
|
We all have shame |
|
Everybody feels a bit of emptiness sometimes |
|
Now what you gonna do about that |
|
There's a way to keep going |
|
Step by step |
|
Try to fix what's been broken |
|
Brick by brick |
|
While your life will keep coming |
|
Year after year |
|
Drain the pain |
|
Tear by tear |
|
Drain away the pain |
|
Tear by tear |
|
Take a look around you |
|
Every face that you see |
|
Well everybody gets a little paralyzed sometimes |
|
The epidemic of our insanity[Chorus] |
|
And the mother she waits' |
|
Cause her teenager's late |
|
Till the knock on the door |
|
He says ma'am |
|
I am so sorry |
|
And soldiers come home |
|
One leg less than they'd gone with |
|
We all walk around like there's just nothing wrong with it |
|
The doctor he cries 'cause his last patient died |
|
Did I mention before he was a father of five |
|
And the waitress is home |
|
Well she can't pay her loan |
|
She's lost everything - everything |
|
Has no where to go |
|
And the fat kid at school couldn't take anymore |
|
All the taunts and the names and the ugliest words |
|
No one even stopped to notice |
|
Went on with their day |
|
Till he pulled out a gun and blew himself away |
|
There's a way to keep going |
|
Step by step |
|
Try to fix what's been broken |
|
Brick by brick |
|
You can drain all the pain |
|
Tear by tear |
|
Tear by tear |
