lyrics

There’s nothing to fear but the air that I breath
I find myself hiding from what I most need
Waiting for something to make it all right
Saving myself wasting my life

I only look inward I only look back
Whatever I say invites bitter attack
I try to look forward the smoke burns my eyes
My back's to a wall filled with digital lies

I have to say something
I don’t know what to say
It feels like there’s nothing worth saying anyway
I have to go somewhere
I want to stay home
I’ve got to do something
I go it alone

Called to the streets for the ones who can’t breathe
I’ll be one among many if that’s what they need
A passive spectator who hides in a mask
I don’t have the answers and nobody asks

Convinced that by now I had figured it out
Told that I knew what the world was about
By a system that hides me from danger and fear
Don’t worry, you won’t hear them crying from here

I have to say something
I don’t know what to say
I come up with nothing
I say it anyway
I have to go somewhere
I want to stay home
I’ve got to do something
I go it alone

We all need each other
To fix a broken world
To fix a broken world
