lyrics

When will we wake up
To their lies and their deceit yeah
Oh what have we become
Another part in their machine yeah

So long our hopeful days
Well they have broken our dreams yeah
No more can we paint our fate
Well they are spreading their disease yeah

Oh, But don’t you go give up
Your life it has a meaning yeah
Don’t let your heart be stopped
Whoah oh oh, it must continue beating yeah yeah

Why they make us cry oh (Cry oh)?
Why they make us cry (Ooh ooh why)?
Why they make us cry oh?
Well I don’t know
But I will go my way

When will we become
What we know we are meant to be yeah
Are we too busy on the run
That we hardly even see yeah

Oh no more can we watch and wait
This is more than just a feeling
Why do we give when all they take
Oh whose media we believe in

Yeah, but don’t you go give up
Oh oh oh your life it has a meaning
Yeah don’t let your heart be stopped
Whoah oh it must continue beating
Oh yes ooh yeah yeah

Why they make us cry oh? (Cry oh)
Why they make us cry? (Ooh ooh cry)
Why they make us cry oh?
Well I don’t know

But I will hope someday (Someday)

Whoah nanananana
Yeah yeah (Someday)
Whoah nanananana
(Ooh ooh ooh)

Come my way
Oh I say
Don’t you play
That old game no more

Why they make us cry oh? (Cry oh)
Why they make us cry? (Ooh ooh cry)
Ooooh why they make us cry oh?
Well I don’t know
But I will hope
That we will come to know
Oh soon someday
(Someday)
