The need, not the cause

So how can we just drown ourselves in apathy
When we've all seen the lie of better times?

We turn our heads away, but there's a price to pay
At the expense of those who never loved at all (who never loved at all)

They fall and everything's lost again
These are the hearts that will never know
Tell me that love is something that i could move from me to them

Tell me, just tell me

And how can we spread hatred so religiously
When we all have the time to recognize
That there's someone out there who'll never understand
That love is something worth living for

They fall and everything's lost again
These are the hearts that we'll never know
Tell me that love is something that i could move from me to them

So how can we rest when our children are so helpless
When all they need is a hand to hold on to?

Don't even tell me that this is too hard to change
(to change your ways)

They fall and everything's lost again
These are the hearts that will never know
Tell me that love is something that i could move from me to them
[x2]

Tell me, just tell me
That everything's been, everything's been lost, lost again
