Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us lay back - watch the world go by
Some of us fear
Some of us hate
Some of us won't wake up 'till it's too late!

The distance between us is a mystery to us all
The difference between us is so small!

There are no answers, only questions
And we're all strangers to the truth
But in my mind's eye
I have found the reason why
And I carry the burden of the proof

Why do we fight?
Why do we fall?
Why do we stand there - backs against the wall?
Why don't we change?
Why don't we try?
Why don't we turn 'round, help the other guy?

The distance between us is a mystery to us all
The difference between us is so small!
There are no answers, only questions
And we're all strangers to the truth
But in my mind's eye
I have found the reason why
And I carry the burden of the proof
