Lyrics

0:17Well I would like to think
0:20The world hasn't seen
0:22That all the best is still to come,
0:26And I know life ain't easy.
0:31I pass them sleeping on the streets
0:35Their bloodstained hands and dirty feet
0:38And I can't ignore them
0:43Any more then I already have
0:49So we laugh, and we smile
0:52And we play our games of sweet denial
0:56But don't tell me we're forgiven
1:01If we hold, all our breath
1:04If we kneel right down and just repent
1:09You can't tell me we're forgiven
1:13Start with me
1:15I cannot lie
1:18When my heart doesn't follow my eyes
1:22Turn away from all the suffering
1:26That surrounds
1:28Our time on this earth
1:30For some their life has been a curse
1:34I say I'm sorry and I should change
1:39You know it just could be me someday
2:11There's no way out of here
2:17I don't want to die, and leave it all behind
2:23Each day part of me disappears
2:28But who am I to judge, what's been sent from above
3:27We can't laugh
3:29We can't smile
3:30When so much just ain't right
3:34It can't go on forever...
3:39If we hold, our breath
3:43If we kneel down and repent
3:47You can't tell me we're forgiven, no,
3:59You can't tell me we're forgiven
4:09END
Well I would like to think
The world hasn't seen
That all the best is still to come,
And I know life ain't easy.
I pass them sleeping on the streets
Their bloodstained hands and dirty feet
And I can't ignore them
Any more then I already have
So we laugh, and we smile
And we play our games of sweet denial
But don't tell me we're forgiven
If we hold, all our breath
If we kneel right down and just repent
You can't tell me we're forgiven
Start with me
I cannot lie
When my heart doesn't follow my eyes
Turn away from all the suffering
That surrounds
Our time on this earth
For some their life has been a curse
I say I'm sorry and I should change
You know it just could be me someday
There's no way out of here
I don't want to die, and leave it all behind
Each day part of me disappears
But who am I to judge, what's been sent from above
We can't laugh
We can't smile
When so much just ain't right
It can't go on forever...
If we hold, our breath
If we kneel down and repent
You can't tell me we're forgiven, no,
You can't tell me we're forgiven
END
