This world aint what it used to be
Im fighting things I cannot see
I think theres something going on tonight
The future melted with the past
I dont know how long this can last
Theres something out there but it dont feel right
Some things I recognise but others seem so strange
Cant believe I fully understand
How things can be one way and
Then suddenly theyre turned upon their head.
Sometimes the world can be so blind
Cant see whats 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 dont 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.
Some things I recognise but others seem so strange
Cant believe I fully understand
How things can be one way and
Then suddenly theyre turned upon their head.
Sometimes the world can be so blind
Cant see whats 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.
So cant we all just live our lives ?
So many people need not die
Why cant they see we are all flesh and blood?
There has to be another way
I dont care what our leaders say
I know that we can find a brighter day.
Sometimes the world can be so blind
Cant see whats 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.
Sometimes the world can be so blind
Cant see whats 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.
