break your heart

People down-cast in despair
See the dis-illusion everywhere
Hoping their bad luck will change
Its a little harder everyday
People struggle, people fight
For the simple pleasures in their life
The trouble comes from everywhere
Its a little more than you can bear
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
The way theyve been
And the way theyve always been
People shallow, self-absorbed
See them push and shove for their rewards
When I, me, mine is on their minds
You can read about it in their eyes
People ruthless, people cruel
The damage that some people do
Full of hatred, full of pride
Its enough to make you lose your mind
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way theyve been
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way theyve been
Dont spread the discontent
Dont spread the lies
Dont make the same mistakes
With your own life
You never will let love survive
I know that it will hurt
I know that it will break your heart
The way things are
And the way theyve been
Dont spread the discontent
Dont spread the lies
Dont make the same mistakes
In your own life
And dont disrespect yourself
Dont lose your pride
And dont think everybody's gotta choose a side
