This world ain't what it used to be |
|
I'm fighting things I cannot see |
|
I think there's something going on tonight |
|
The future melted with the past |
|
I don't know how long this can last |
|
There's something out there but it don't feel right |
|
Some things I recognise but others seem so strange |
|
Can't believe I fully understand |
|
How things can be one way and |
|
Then suddenly they're turned upon their head. |
|
Sometimes the world can be so blind |
|
Can't see what's right before their eyes |
|
And just deny that they can see things changing |
|
Dance to the beat of a different drum |
|
Imagine where it all went wrong |
|
And try to prove that they just want to save the world. |
|
Our leaders just don't seem to care |
|
They sanction fighting everywhere |
|
But what the hell is all this fighting for? |
|
Then politicians take their leave |
|
Leave the rest of us to grieve |
|
And shed a tear for those who went to war. |
|

|
And try to prove that they just want to save the world. |
|
So can't we all just live our lives? |
|
So many people need not die |
|
Why can't they see we are all flesh and blood? |
|
There has to be another way |
|
I don't care what our leaders say |
|
I know that we can find a brighter day. |
|
Sometimes the world can be so blind |
