When everyone you've ever loved has left or pushed you away
|
Oh, what's the use of trying this again
|
It's hard to keep from giving up
|
It's easier to just close up your heart
|
You place your votes
|
Misplace your hope on men
|
Who let you down
|
With loaded words and broken promises
|
It's hard to trust in anyone
|
It's easier to just fold up your arms
|
|
But everything's gonna change
|
And nothing's gonna stay the way it is
|
One day you'll wake and the curse will break
|
And even you won't be the same
|
Your hope is not wasted on the day when everything will change
|
|
You make a vow
|
You take the bread and wine
|
And the family name
|
With people who mistake lies for the truth
|
It's hard to keep on showing up
|
It's easier to run away from home
|
|
But everything's gonna change
|
And nothing's gonna stay the way it is
|
One day you'll wake and the curse will break
|
And even you won't be the same
|
Your hope is not wasted on the day when everything will change
|
|
And on that day, there will be no time for suffering
|
And on that day, no hunger and no thirst
|
And on that day, we'll run out of time for death and tears
|
No wonder they call it glorious
|
|
Everything's gonna change
|
And nothing's gonna stay the way it is
|
One day you'll wake and the curse will break
|
And even you won't be the same
|
|
Oh everything's gonna change
|
And nothing's gonna stay the way it is
|
One day you'll wake and the curse will break
|
And even you won't be the same
|
Your hope is not wasted on the day when everything will change
|

Everything Will Change
