I could drive myself crazy, thinking about the difference
between what could be and what actually is
So much pain and confusion, so much wasted potential,
so much anger and violence, so much insanity
but it’s the same old thing and we live it every day
It’s the same old thing and there’s nothing left to say

There’s got to be a better way
There’s got to be a better way
There’s got to be
a better way

The old men with their money, keep accumulating profits
and the money in their pockets comes directly from your wallet
So much pain and confusion, so much wasted potential,
so much anger and violence, so much insanity
but it’s the same old thing and we live it every day
It’s the same old thing and there’s nothing left to say

There’s got to be a better way
There’s got to be a better way
There’s got to be
a better way

And nothing ever changes from one year to another
Everybody’s got a point of view, and we all disagree
So much pain and confusion, so much wasted potential,
so much anger and violence, so much insanity
but it’s the same old thing and we live it every day
It’s the same old thing and there’s nothing left to say

There’s got to be a better way
There’s got to be a better way
There’s got to be
a better way
