So am I still waiting For this world to stop hating Can't find a good reason Can't find hope to believe in Drop dead a bullet to my head Your words are like a gun in hand You can't change the state of the nation We just need some motivation These eyes have seen no conviction Just lies and more contradiction So tell me what would you say I'd say its up, to me So am I still waiting For this world to stop hating Can't find a good reason Can't find hope to believe in Ignorance and Understanding We're the first ones to jump in line Out of step for what we believe in But who's left? To stop the pleading How far will we take this It's not hard to see through the sickness So tell me what would you say I'd say its up... to me So am I still waiting For this world to stop hating Can't find a good reason Can't find hope to believe in This can't last forever Time won't make things better I feel so alone Can't help myself And no one knows If this is worthless Tell me, so What have we done We're in a war that can't be won This can't be real I don't know what to feel So am I still waiting For this world to stop hating Can't find a good reason Can't find hope to believe in So am I still waiting For this world to stop hating Can't find a good reason Can't find hope to believe in
