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
