You’d think by now we’d be through with this You’d think by now we’d have this thing figured out This one hurts a little different

Something’s different this time. Oh yes it is. Something’s different this time. Oh, I know... That something’s different this time. Oh... Something’s different this time

Maybe it’s the way the tears are falling down They’re falling a little harder this time And this time they fall from your eyes Maybe it’s the way Maybe it’s the way that we all feel so breathless This time around. Oh, I don’t know I don’t know. All I can say is...

Something’s different this time. Oh... There’s something different this time. Yeah, yeah. Oh... Something’s different this time. Yeah yeah. Oh... Something is different this time

Maybe a change will come But people are hurting People are burning inside. Inside. Wondering why this keeps happening. Oh, why this keeps happening, oh why... I ask you why did it take so long To say that it’s wrong when we die. We die... By the hands that should only save lives

Something’s different this time. I believe in my soul... There’s something different this time. Something’s different this time. Yeah. Oh... Something is different this time
