"The New York Times" lyrics

"The New York Times"

Oh
It makes no sense to me
Yeah, I was living in a different world when I heard the news
I keep on having the same bad dream
And it makes me want to hurt all the people who have done this thing to you

When I see your face, I can see you smile
I read all about you in the New York Times
When I see your eyes, I can see your light
When I think about what happened
It just makes me crazy

It makes no sense to me
This eye for an eye thing
It has gone too far
I don't know anyone who doesn't hurt inside
I would like to believe we can learn from this
And maybe some day we can make things right
I want to believe in this world
I want to believe in this life
I want to believe in a world that does not seem real
When you read between the lines

When I see your face, I can see you smile
I read all about you in my New York Times
When I see your eyes, I can see your light
When I read the words about you
It just makes me crazy

I want to believe in this world
I want to believe in this life
I want to believe in a world that does not seem real
When you read between the lines
You gotta read between the lines
Whoa, you gotta read between the lines
I really want to believe I can make things right

I want to believe I can learn how to feel alright inside
I want to believe I can learn how to make things right
Oh, I want to believe in this world
I want to believe in this life
I want to believe in a world that does not seem real
When you read the New York Times

I see your face, I can see your smile
I read all about you in the New York Times
I can see your eyes, I can see your light
When I think about what happened
It just makes me crazy

When I close my eyes
You seem so alive
When I think about you
I want to believe we can make things right
I want to believe
I want to believe
Oh, I want to believe in this world
I want to believe in this life
I want to believe in a world that does not seem real
When I read the New York Times
