lyrics

I'll keep on asking
why it is the way that it is
and you'll keep on telling me
this will pass too. this will pass too.

I've been clinging to arms
that I know will never know how to hold me
cause I needed hope more than I desired truth
and I clung to lies just to fight off all my blues

but I don't want my life to pass me by
and I don't want to find out on the day that I die
that I'd been living on other men's words
what they say, what they said
my life was worth

People been tellin' me my whole life how
the world will never change,
but I beg to differ
I plan to rearrange
the way that we think
even if its just about this one thing
