We are living in a time,
people don’t think straight,
on the tube competition rules fame,
I can barely see the true light …

Can’t change my world,
Everything being told,
Everything seems to be a lie,
it’s choking me, it’s choking me, like a tie!

We are living in a time,
where you are your clothes,
where you are your car, where money makes your name,
where we can’t see our own roads …

It’s such a mad world,
everybody does what’s being told,
creative minds are afraid,
because gentleness is getting too late …

We are living in those times,
where you are your furniture,
where you are your email, where everyone gets the same,
where sadness and darkness lures …

Doesn’t anybody see,
we can’t accept, the bad things being done to thee,
We need to harden ourselves,
what about our minds … what about about our lives…

We are living in a time,
where toleration starts to dimish,
where discrimination starts to rule,
where you need to pay to feel happyness …

Can’t change my world,
All the naivity and hypocritism,
All the people, doing what they are being told,
No accepting, no tolerating, no cash, all that critisism…

We are living in a time,
Where I don’t feel all too fine,
where I have no voice,
Do you feel you still have a choice ?

What happens to my world,
it’s falling apart, it’s breaking in two,
everything is upside down, where you are what’s being told,
Do you feel this too ?

We are living in a time,
where we need to compete, where we have no name,
your wallet is your choice, where your car is your soul,
don’t tell me I didn’t told …

What about the safety of others?
What about being friendly to your neightbours,
Tolerating and respecting everybody like your brothers,
Why is everyone closing their doors …

We are living in a time,
where feelings are no match, where feelings let you die,
you need to harden yourself more and more,
till you are not satisfied with yourself anymore!

I can’t change my world,
where I don’t want to do what’s being told,
creativity wants to feel free,
a world where they accept again… who will understand me ?

We are living in a time,
where we need to close our feelings, close our souls,
to survive, to get accepted in society with your name,
Start your fame, stop your feelings, start your roles!

I can’t change my world,
I feel I’m dieing alone,
Where you are what’s being told,
What’s your feeling? the feeling of being home ?

We are living in a time, where we are being told so,
where hope only gives us life,
where we wish yesterday will be a better tomorrow,
will time cure everything? or will it stab us like a knife?

I wish I could change my world,
I tried to change my world,
I cannot change my world,
can’t change my world…
