lyrics

Some see it clear as the day, some clouded by the doubt
There's a flood of hate and love is in a draught
There's people being poisoned each and every day
Fingers being pointed each and every way

I weep for the world, I weep for you and me
I weep for the world, is this how it's supposed to be
Oh no, I don't think so

Ain't it funny how we're in the age of information
And schools are made for profit instead of education
They're students taught to test instead of people to grow
A world that's run by greed is all they'll ever know

I weep for the world, I weep for you and me
I weep for the world, is this how it's supposed to be
Oh no, I don't think so, no no

The left and right they're both wrong you know that that's the truth
They create the problems then blame it on the youth
Distract and divide, lather rise repeat
Add a little pinch of fear and watch it as they eat it up

Well I weep for the world, I weep for you and me
I weep for the world, is this how it's supposed to be
No no, I don't think so, no no
Despite all of this, there's hope for us you see
We can come together and for the world find peace
