And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be?
Cleaning up the mess we've made or watching your TV?
And if you have to ask, then you don't have a clue,
There's snow in Arizona while they're bombing in Beirut!
I hope some day...when i'm dead and gone,
We learn to right...everything that's wrong,
With loving hands...turn sick to strong,
Our time will tell...if life goes on, on, on, on, on
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore,
You run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight,
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!
It just don't make no sense, there's a million mouthes to feed,
We got military action over monetary need
And you can turn your back, or you can plant the seed
You can choose compassion over universal greed
I hope some day... when i'm dead and gone,
We learn to right... everything that's wrong,

When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight,
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!
And you can turn your back, but it won't go away
And you don't look scared, but you should be afraid
You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say
And you just don't care, for tomorrow, today
And you can turn your back, but it won't go away
And you don't look scared, but you should be afraid
You can shut your mouth, but you still have a say
And you just don't care, for tomorrow, today
Well no way! way! No way, no way, no way, no way!
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore,
You run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight,
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!

Swimming in the dark, we're bound to drift apart
And I just can't go on, pretending we're in love.
We play with matches in the rain but never learn
We try to light it but the fire never burns
You thought that love was just a casting call,
well its our turn to quit before the curtain falls
Don't need to pretend to love me, you don't need to pretend to want me,
You don't need to pretend to need me, we just never were meant to,
Am I wrong?
Am I right?
Have I lost my mind, lost my mind
Now I dance around her heart, like an actor plays the part.
I hit the stage and I get blinded by the light,
I read the script, but I just can't recite the lines
You thought that love was just a casting call,
well its our turn to quit before the curtain falls
Don't need to pretend to love me, we just never were meant to ever be,
You don't need to pretend to love me, we just never were meant to,
Am I wrong?
Am I right?
Have I lost my mind [x2]
So get on with your life 'cause we're just wasting time.
And I just can't go on, pretending we're in love.
We play with matches in the rain but never learn
We try to light it but the fire never burns
You thought that love was just a casting call,
well its our turn to quit before the curtain falls
Don't need to pretend to love me, you don't need to pretend to want me,
You don't need to pretend to need me, we just never were meant to,
Am I wrong?
Am I right?
Have I lost my mind, lost my mind
Now I dance around her heart, like an actor plays the part.
I hit the stage and I get blinded by the light,

So get on with your life 'cause we're just wasting time.
