lyrics

Some people don’t seem to care
Some people won’t give their time
Some people don’t feel the same
Somehow they can turn their face

Give me the world to save
Give me the world to save

Cause they all sleep at night, no eyes that cry
Well I think seeing the truth is better, to feel inside
I wonder what gets them going, what breaks behind
Cause breaking down breaking down is better than a flat-line
I’m seeing

Seems to me awful sad
See how they brush it off
See how everyone gives less
They keep all their goods – the best

So give me the world to save
Give me the world to save

Cause they all sleep at night, no eyes that cry
Well I think seeing the truth is better, to feel inside
I wonder what gets them going, what breaks behind
Cause breaking down breaking down is better than a flat-line

You better find, you better find
What you know to be right
You better find, you better find
What you hold to be right
You better find, you better find

Cause they all sleep at night, no eyes that cry
Well I think seeing the truth is better, to feel inside
I wonder what gets them going, what breaks behind
Cause breaking down breaking down is better than a flat-line
(Go on, off the line – go feel it)
