well i thought that

we all cared about peace

and i thought that

we'd all cry about love and loss

and i thought that

we were somehow holding on

but i'm just standing here

no one should have to

live all of their life on their own

no one should have to

live all of their life on the

every time i think about

what i can do

it just slips away

and every time i think that

we can make things work

well it just slips away

and i turn on the news

and there's always some dude

who's relentlessly bringing me down

telling me how

there are too many

dark people out there

who'll never be found

well

no one should have to

live all of their life on their own

no one should have to

live all of their life on their own

no one should have to

live that sort of life and i

think it's time that

we all learned forgiveness

and i can't believe the

vast amounts of people

living on the streets

and i can't believe that

i was almost one of them

and i almost died

and i can't believe that

i haven't lifted a hand

and i'm just standing here

well i'm gonna change

I'm gonna change

I'm gonna change

I'm gonna change

I'm gonna change

no one should have to

live all of their life on their own

no one should have to

live all of their life on their own

no one should have to

live all of their life on their own

no one should have to

live all of their life on their own
