Woke up this morning I was feeling good
Turned up the radio I understood
Things are changing like never before
Then I go back to bed and close the door

It would be laughable if it wasn't sad
Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad

Picked up my cell phone and called some friends
They tried to tell me that it's not the end
I still remember how it used to be
How did this happen to you and me

It would be laughable if it wasn't sad
Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad

Let's all be honest, it's going to hell
But not forever
Don't be afraid, don't lose your faith
We need to come together

They think they're different, even I can see
It's peace and loving for you and for me

It would be laughable if it wasn't sad
Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad

Yeah, laughable if it wasn't sad
