About the world I have no more thoughts
I just wish I believed a bit more
In how much better we could be
Instead I mourn the horror that we are

(The horror that we are)

Oh I write down my deepest desperations
And there's not much more that I can do
Then I dream about it reaching every nation
And I pray it'd make some difference to you

But all my dreams and all my songs
They have no power not alone
And I want to kill this pessimism
But tell me how come
Well the world looks like its ending but I won't
Oh I won't!

Do you believe in better days?
Each day it gets harder
I often bite more than I can take
I'm so sorry mother
But just to think I might survive
While so many others are doomed to die tonight

Who am I kidding?
All I have are thoughts like those
What I really lack
Oh what I'm missing
It's just a little bit of hope

Do you believe in better days?
Well each day it gets harder
I often bite more than I can take
I'm so sorry mother
But just to think I might survive
While so many others are doomed to die
