Well, I would like to think
The world hasnīt seen
That all the best is still to come,
And I know life ainīt easy.
I pass them sleeping on the streets
Their bloodstained hands and dirty feet
And I canīt ignore them
Any more then I already have
[Chorus:]
So we laugh, and we smile
and we play our games of sweet denial
But donīt tell me weīre forgiven
If we hold, all our breath
If we kneel right down and just repent
You canīt tell me weīre forgiven
Start with me
I cannot lie
When my heart doesnīt follow my eyes
Turn away from all the suffering
That surrounds
Our time on this earth
For some their life has been a curse
I say Iīm sorry and I should change
You know it just could be me someday
[Chorus]
Thereīs no way out of here
I donīt want to die, and leave it all behind
Each day part of me disappears
But who am I to judge, whatīs been sent from above
[Chorus]
We canīt laugh
We canīt smile
When so much just ainīt right
It canīt go on forever...
If we hold, our breath
If we kneel down and repent
You canīt tell me weīre forgiven, no,
You canīt tell me weīre forgiven
