Tell me why this world is a mess I thought you always tried your best Tell me what I'm ought to do Maybe you should do it too
Tell me why they're sleeping alone No house nowhere to call a home Tell me what I'm meant to see Won't you stop preaching at me
[Chorus:] And I wanna see what it's all about And I wanna live, wanna give something back Don't tell me that it's over It's only just begun Don't tell me that it's over Or that this song is sung The song is sung
All the money in the world Would never slit all the wrongs to right All the fire in the world Would never set my heart alive
I dream of a day when it's all gone away And the sun is shining bright I dream of a day when it's all gone away But dreams are for night
[Chorus]
Don't tell that it's over Please I'm on my knees I'm beggin you to stop It's over please I'm on my knees I'm beggin you to stop
