For a Change

Hmmm-mmm
You said that you were gonna give me everything
But it never came to be
You said you needed but you needed my help
When are you gonna help me?
You might've taken but you're surely not a giver, babe
Don't think you could ever be
So now I feel I'm at the centre of a fire
Don't wanna let it burn me
The same old tricks, I should've known
Maybe the time for words is gone
Patience is thin and my nerves are worn
And I'm so tired of waiting for a change
I need a little light in the rain
I'm sick of dreaming 'bout the one day
Maybe you'll make it
Cuz I believe it's time for a change
I gotta find a new anger, babe
Instead of looking for something to say-ay
Why not try the truth for a change?
Hmmm
For a change, yeah-ah
I thought I'd find an answer in the light of day
But there's nothing there to see
Always a twist, a little turn in what you say
You gotta learn to talk to me
You haven't lost me but the cost of climbing everything
I might need the company
The same excuse, I should've known
Maybe I've helped out for too long
Under my skin, something is wrong
And I'm so tired of waiting for a change
I need a little light in the rain
I'm sick of dreaming 'bout the one day
Maybe you'll make it
Cuz I believe it's time for a change
I gotta find a new anger, babe
Instead of looking for something to say-ay
Why not try the truth for a change, yeah
Oooh Oh Oh
Why?
The same old tricks, I should've known
Maybe the time for words is gone
Patience is thin and my nerves are worn
And I'm so tired of waiting for a change
I need a little light in the rain
I'm sick of dreaming 'bout the one day
Maybe you'll make it
Cuz I believe it's time for a change
I gotta find a new anger, babe
Instead of looking for something to say
Why not try the truth
(Why not try)
Why not try the truth for a cha--ahhh
For a change
(Why not try, Why not try)
