It's gotta be a way around everything
I gotta know so you have to start walking away
It's not physical or criminal, its not political anyway
Stop getting confused now
Or making your rules now

We've given you voices and given you choices
And they say
Why? Why do our children cry?
Why do our children cry?
Yeah

And everybody does what it takes to ease the pain.
We're better off alone and we know it
But its a difficult thing to do
Cheat or chose or win or lose
Everybody's in on it anyway
Hell, why do we care when there's chemical warfare?
It's ironic to say when we're stuck in the system anyway

Why? Why do the people pray?
Why do the people pray?
Ooh

And everybody's fighting
And everybody knows
We cannot change it but we're close
And I hear them calling me
Do you know I'm trying to free you, find you, reach you

There never gonna listen (Oh no)
Who's it you're missing? (Oh No)
Tell me where's your prison.
I know (2x)

I know because I listen.
I know (3x)

I hear them cause I listen and now I know.
