"Something Has To Change" lyrics

"Something Has To Change"

Two kids at a stoplight, wiping windshields in the snow
Sticking close together now, trying to make a go
In a nickel and dime world, it's catch as catch can
If you've never been there, you won't understand

Its greed is not money, through which evil works
The haves and the have nots, are just one of the perks
Where life has a purpose, faith has a voice
We can't live in fear like this, and in trembling rejoice

Someday somehow - Something has to change

Am I ready for times such as these, emphatically no
Though I did see it coming, a long time ago
We're out in the cosmos, path in its never-ending swirl
There's a power much greater than those
That would darken the world

Someday somehow - Something has to change
Someday somehow - Something has to change


Thanks to Daniel for correcting these lyrics.
