I see things happening they fall before my eyes Pretend I'm blind like I could never see the heartache That's not mine and fills my head can I just laugh away The sights that tear my soul and make me sick No I could never be so cold to look away Is it so wrong to want to make a difference? I'd like to think there's no excuse Is it a crime to want things better for yourself? How you wanna live is up to you Wish I could be like you indifferent to it all like life's a joke Sarcastic cynical like everything's o.k But it just won't work In life you have to choose to stay at home and hide Or stand up and fight if caring's my offense Then I proudly stand accused so how about you
