Every day there’s more people telling me
"come on - just get on with your
life!"
We’re throwing dollars at every problem that we
see, as if somehow that’s right.
Think about the people that will come here after
you.
Don’t you know? we’ve got a lot to explain.

We’re talking changes while the whole wide world
falls apart, still nothing has changed.
Does it seem strange, we know the answers, so
when can we start? 
Could that just be a fantasy? 

Almost everyone makes a living off of fear, it’s
good business today.
Cast dispersions on everyone and everything, it
poisons all that we say.
Speak as if you have your own monopoly on truth.
You know - this dream just has to survive!

We’re talking changes while the whole wide world
falls apart, still nothing has changed,
Does it seem strange we blame the past for what’s
still in our hearts? 
Or could that just be a fantasy? 

The beltway poets are waxing eloquent again, you
know the punchline
If you had just left all the decisions up to me,
then things would be fine,
Don’t think about your children cause there’s
only here and now.
Don’t you know? - they’ve got a right to
survive!

We’re talking changes while the whole wide world
falls apart, still nothing has changed.
Does it seem strange what’s in the head never
reaches the heart? 
Could this just be a fantasy? 

We’re talking change just cause the whole wide
world falls apart - that’s no reason to change.
Does it seem strange we have the answers - so
when can we start? 
Their future is not just fantasy - you’ll agree
with me - eventually.
