Sometimes I wish I could go back to when I was a kid again
And be blind to this messed up world we're living in
But I know this can't be so I do my best to cope
Control my impulses before I start to choke
On all the frustration I feel building on my throat
They got our backs up against the ropes
One more push and it's gonna be the final poke
It is time we all start to sing a different note
We are running out of time it feels like the end is close
I'm just trying to make it long enough to watch some grand kids grow
I ask the world because I just have to know
How long are we gonna hold onto the hate and when can we let it all go
Don't tell me this madness will last forever
Somebody please tell me it isn't so...
