there s a scared child behind angry words sometimes what you say is so absurd i am reaching out against the trend you ll still find me here if you need a friend i just don t understand why you re bringing me down when there s so much madness to be found when my mind is finally halfway sound i will wait for you love come around life was simpler without you here when your problems didn t reach my ear i will borrow you for this night and to sorrow we will say goodbye i just don t understand why you re bringing me down when there s so much madness to be found when my mind is finally halfway sound i will wait for you love come around when the people seem to lose their voice and are victims to the evil choice can we rise from this darkness yet can we live our lives without regret i just don t understand why you re bringing me down when there s so much madness to be found when my mind is finally halfway sound i will wait for you love come around there s a wisdom for this crazy time there s a hopefulness that is sublime we will follow the better way reach for beauty today i just don t understand why you re bringing me down when there s so much madness to be found when my mind is finally halfway sound i will wait for you love come around i will wait for you love come around i will wait for you love come around
