Oh I dont know why people lie
And I dont know why people die
Every time I see you, you shout at me
Cause of all the things in the world that I cant see
But what I think goes on in this world
For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl
Is that the more you earn, the less you learn
Theres a fire in life where we will burn
And I never could believe it
And I never could be true
For the things that mean so much to me
Dont mean that much to you
And I never could believe
The way you told me I was wrong
If Im right and you are sinful
Then for Gods sake I was wrong
Oh, I dont know how I think this way,
And yet you sit there looking at me all day
Theres more to you than I can see
Theres a shadow of another hanging over me
But what I think goes on in this world
For a mother and a father and a boy and a girl
Is that the more you earn, the less you learn
Theres a fire in life where we will burn
And I never could believe it
And I never could be true
For the things that mean so much to me
Dont mean that much to you
And I never could believe
The way you told me I was wrong
If Im right and if youre sinful
Then for Gods sake I was wrong
Oh, Id tear you out of heaven
And Id tear you out of hell
And Id see your life in ruins
Because mine lies there as well
And Id cry out in my loneliness
While you sleep in your peace
But youll never see my face again
While I need words like these
