[Verse 1]
I say the world could use more sad songs now
But I can't help this feeling we've erased our doubts
And now I look around and everyone walks around blind
And we'll sing about all our fun tonight
All the drinks and the drugs, making love in the night
While there's terror and war next door, and right here in our eyes

[Verse 2]
My cynical being isn't here with no meaning
I can't understand what they mean
When they say they don't care, I don't care
Everything is now when we have a choice
While the crazy world we live in doesn't have a voice
But if it did, what do you think it would say to us if it could?

[Pre-Chorus]
It's all philosophy
This is our fantasy
Will someone come save me?
I'm just not meant to see

[Chorus]
And we live in the dark
And we all play our part
We don't know what we are
Corruption always wins when we have no one to uncover it
We don't know what we are
We don't know what we are
[Bridge]
I look up at the sky and I see all the stars
Are we as meaningless as we say we are?
And I would like to think I could prove you wrong
But then again, I'm just a kid writing a stupid song
But there's got to be more, I've got to find more, I need more
I'm never gonna be like them, I'm never gonna be like them
I'm never gonna be like them, I'm never gonna be like them
I'm never gonna be like them, I'm never gonna be like them
I'm never gonna be like them, I'm never gonna be

[Outro]
I look up at the sky and I see all the stars
Are we as meaningless as we say we are?
And I'd like to think I could prove you wrong
But then again, I'm just a kid writing a stupid song
