lyrics

Whoa, oh
Maybe I’m just tired of living life this way
Was it too hard to believe
That I could make a difference
In this godforsaken world
By myself
And now I see
The change was only me

You cannot hide
And there’s no hope
When thieves & killers run the show
And every moment’s a
DISASTER
Lives are shorter
At the
BORDER
Between life and death so thin it can’t be seen
YOU
CANT
IMAGINE
WHAT ITS LIKE
WHEN YOU TAKE FEAR FOR A WIFE

Whoa, oh
Maybe I’m just tired of living life this way
Was it too hard to believe
That I could make a difference
In this godforsaken world
By myself
And now I see
The change was only me x2

Oh is it fair that life is just a game of chance
Born in luxury or suffering
Oh, there is hope in tragedy
Your persistence makes you stronger
They keep pulling you down x3

Did you know today would be your last day
When you woke up this morning
Cause you never what’s around the next corner
And you never know
What’s at your door
They’re always saying that things would get better
But
Years and years and nothing ever changes
Hard to believe in
Humanity
When pain and hatred are all you
See

Whoa, oh
Maybe I’m just tired of living life this way
Was it too hard to believe
That I could make a difference
In this godforsaken world
By myself
And now I see
The change was only me x2
