We're living in a broken-down system, and it doesn't give people much care.
We're searching for the end of the tunnel, so afraid that the light won't be there.
We're sinking deeper down to the depths of disillusion and pain and deep hurt.
We're working, so the rich can get richer, as the poor are ground into the dirt.
We don't want more pain and fear.
Who can get us out of here?
There has to be a way we can do things that will bring out the best things in us.
We need to know that we can believe that life's worth living.
Can life be worth living?
You think that all that matters is profits and the ones that don't make it are weak.
You think that you're entitled to crush us if it gets you the things that you seek.
You're terrified to open your mind to the thought you could be one of us.
You insulate your heart from our pain and castigate us for making a fuss.
We don't want more pain and fear.
Who can get us out of here?
There has to be a way we can do things that will bring out the best things in us.
We need to know that we can believe that life's worth living.
Can life be worth living?
Maybe we need to look deep inside us,
Seeking for wisdom within.
All of us need to open our hearts,
for compassion and healing to win
We don't want more pain and fear.
Let's all get us out of here!
There has to be a way we can do things that will bring out the best things in us.
We need to know that we can believe that life's worth living.
Let's make life worth living!
