Tell me why the grass was greener
Years ago I swear it used to grow here
But no more here
Tell me why on this hill
All the birds they used to come to fly here
Come to die here
And tell me why I need to know
Sometimes I wish I didn't have to know
All you've shown me
Hey world what you say
Should I stick around for another day or two?
Don't give up on me, I won't give up on you
Just believe in me, like I believe in you
Pause
And tell me why it's okay
To kill in name of the gods we pray
Tell me who said it's okay
To die in the name of the lies we say
Tell me why there's child soldiers
Tell me why they closed the borders
Tell me how to fight disease and
Tell me now, won't you please?
The only thing I wanna do
Is to be in the arms of someone
Who believes in me, like I believe in you
And I way hey world, what you say
Should I stick around for another day?
