Better |
| Another crash |
| Some flashes pass me by |
| I grab my cash |
| Ten thousand people died |
| I pack my things, turn off the TV, then I run |
| My cab is waiting outside |
| Refugees hide |
| I tell him where to go |
| War is near by |
| It’s on the radio |
| No turning back |
| Were out of time is all I say |
| Bad traffic today |
| Chorus I |
| Sometimes I wonder if I should have known better |
| That I allow myself to live this way |
| We’re denying all that really matters |
| I am ashamed of the world today |
| So ashamed to say that we should know better |
| A girl walks by |
| Came here to build her life |
| She’s got no rights |
| Her heart is paralised |
| Her chances gone |
| I hope she didn’t hear me say |
| It’s a beautiful day |
| Chorus I |
| mid 8 |
| It’s so ironic when we talk about faith |
| To clear our conscience, try to compensate |
| For what is said and done |
| But we just go on |
| So ashamed to say that we should know better |
| Chorus II |
| Sometimes I wonder if we should have known better |
| That we allow ourselves to live this way |
| We’re denying all that really matters |
| I am ashamed of the world today |
| So ashamed to say that we should know better |
