We've seen this world go by
Side by side
Yet even in this room you're gone
When did you hide?
Oh please come back
Oh please come back
Don't you know I'm changing my ways
And you always wanted that
What's the difference between feeling useless
And being used?
When there's so much to do all at once
You've got your heart and your mind
You don't have to choose
An injustice before our eyes
Fills us with fear
I'd like to tear it down
Before the spirit disappears
Who'll give it back?
Who'll give it back?
Don't you know I'm changing my ways
Though it's not easy to do that
What's the difference between feeling open
And being unhinged?
When our thoughts are out of control
We don't want to lose
But we don't have to win
You've got your heart and your mind
You don't have to choose
