Oh I don't know why people lie And I don't know why people die
Every time I see you you shout at me Cause of all the things in the world that I can't see
But what I think goes on in this world For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl Is that the more you earn the less you learn There's a fire in life where we will burn And I never could believe it And I never could be true For the things that mean so much to me Don't mean that much to you
And I never could believe The way you told me I was wrong
If I'm right and you are sinful Then for god's sake I was wrong
Oh I don't know how I think this way And yet you sit there looking at me all day There's more to you than I can see There's a shadow of another hanging over me
But what I think goes on in this world For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl Is that the more you earn the less you learn There's a fire in life where we will burn And I never could believe it And I never could be true For the things that mean so much to me Don't mean that much to you
And I never could believe The way you told me I was wrong
If I'm right and if you're sinful Then for god's sake I was wrong
Oh I'd tear you out of heaven And I'd tear you out of hell
And I'd see your life in ruins Because mine lies there as well
And I'd cry out in my loneliness While you sleep in your peace But you'll never see my face again While I need words like these
