Change Yourself, Change The World

lyrics

Don’t say these words don’t matter,
Because I know you’ll sing them again.
Don’t say this heart grows weaker,
Because this love is all we have in the end.

Step back.
We’re all the same, tired and frustrated,
Always placing the blame.
Clinging to our hatred, we’re barely living,
And we live in recession, with no hope for progression.

How can you stare evil in the eye,
When you can’t even look at your own reflection?
You need to step up, you’re living through your mistakes,
You need to stand up and make a fucking difference.

You sit back and watch the world through your screen,
Judging everything that doesn’t fit your routine.
You’re spending your days in anger,
You’re giving your life away.

Wake up.
The words you say,
They won’t mean a goddamn thing,
If you’re unwilling to make a change.

We’re all the same,
We’re tired and we’re frustrated.
It shouldn’t be this hard to be yourself.
We’re barely feeling, living in recession,
With nobody to blame.

You sit and judge every single day,
But your reflection never goes away.
You sit and judge every word I say,
But your reflection, it never goes away.

Shut your mouth and open your eyes,
The world is falling apart at the wayside.

We need to take a step back,
And see ourselves for what we are.
Fuck.

It’s time to face your greatest fear,
Take a look at yourself, face first in the mirror.
We’re never going to make a difference,
We’re wasting away our own existence.

Am I strong enough yet?
