The New World Times

I walk the streets of this old city Night is coming up as the sun goes down Look, I look down and see the paper There's nothing there but violence A woman cries, another dies I can't believe what it has come to There's something's strange It's not the same Where do we go from here All we are Is so far Getting better yet so lonely And all we know We cannot show As a people we are blind To the New World Times There are people holding on Fighting for their life And you're worried about what kind of car you drive There are people who are happy just to wake up alive And you sit in your million- dollar home and cry Isn't it strange How we change When we have everything we could need One thing's the same No matter what your name We are all human beings All we are Is so far Getting better yet so lonely All we know We cannot show As a people we are blind In the New World Times We are all children of the universe No less than the trees and the stars Capable of so much love And yet such horrors All we are Is so far Getting only much too lonely All we know We cannot show As a people we all try To win the New World Times All we know We cannot show As a people we must find The New World Times
