Oh I don’t know why people lie
And I don’t know why people die
Every time I see you, you shout at me
`cause of all the things in the world that I can’t see
But what I think goes on in this world
For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl
Is that the more you earn, the less you learn
There’s a fire in life where we will burn
And I never could believe it
And I never could be true
For the things that mean so much to me
Don’t mean that much to you
And I never could believe
The way you told me I was wrong
If I’m right and you are sinful
Then for god’s sake I was wrong
Oh, I don’t know how I think this way,
And yet you sit there looking at me all day
There’s more to you than I can see
There’s a shadow of another hanging over me
But what I think goes on in this world
For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl
Is that the more you earn, the less you learn
There’s a fire in life where we will burn
And I never could believe it
And I never could be true
For the things that mean so much to me
Don’t mean that much to you
And I never could believe
The way you told me I was wrong
If I’m right and if you’re sinful
Then for god’s sake I was wrong
Oh, I’d tear you out of heaven
And I’d tear you out of hell
And I’d see your life when you ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? as well
And I’d cry out in my loneliness
While you sleep in your peace
But you’ll never see my face again
While I need words like these
