| Oh people downcast in despair
|
| See the disillusion everywhere
|
| Hoping that their luck will change
|
| It’s a little harder every day
|
| People struggle people fight
|
| For the simple pleasures in their lives
|
| The trouble comes from everywhere
|
| It’s a little more than you can bear
|
| I know it will be hurt
|
| I know it will break your heart the way things are
|
| And the way they’ve been
|
| And the way they’ve always been
|
| People shallow self absorbed
|
| See the push and shove for their rewards
|
| With nothing nice on their minds
|
| You can read about it in their eyes
|
| People ruthless, people cruel
|
| The damage that some people do
|
| Full of hatred, full of pride
|
| It’s enough to make you lose your mind
|
| I know that it will hurt
|
| I know that it will break your heart the way things are
|
| And the way they’ve been
|
| Yeah I know that it will hurt
|
| I know it will hurt
|
| I know that it will break your heart
|
| The way things are and the way they’ve been
|
| Don’t spread discontent, don’t spread the lies
|
| Don’t make the same mistakes with your own life
|
| You know it will always came back
|
| Yeah, I know that it will hurt
|
| I know that it will hurt
|
| I know that it will break your heart
|
| The way things are and the way they’ve been
|
| Don’t spread discontent, don’t spread the lies
|
| Don’t make the same mistakes with your own life
|
| And don’t disrespect yourself, don’t lose your pride
|
| And don’t think everybody is gonna chose your side
|
| Oh no… Oh no… no. |
