hey world (don't give up version)

tell me why the grass was greener

years ago

i swear

it used to grow here

but no more here. tell me why on this hill

all the birds they used to come to fly here

come to die here. tell me why i need to know

sometimes i wish i didn't have to know

all you've shown me. hey world

what you say

should i stick around for another day or two?

don't give up on me

i won't give up on you. just believe in me like i believe in you. tell me why

on the corner

all the kids that used to come to run here

load their guns here. and tell me why it's okay to kill in the name of the gods we pray

tell me who said it's okay to die in the name of the lies we say

tell me why there's child soldiers

tell me why they close the borders

tell me how to fight disease

and

tell me now

won't you please

the only thing i want to do

is to be in the arms of someone who

believes in me

like i believe in you

and i say

hey world what you say

should i stick for around for another day
