Make It Worth It
What would it take
To make it all worth it
When it's not worth anything?
What would it make
If it turned out to be worth it
Would it not change anything?
For Goodness' sake
Could it ever be worth it
When it cost us everything?
What would it take
To make it all worth it
When it's not worth anything?
Just down the street
There's a thousand people marching
Fists raised, outraged, for the cause
But over here
Are a hundred people shopping
Buying things that they don't need and they don't want
Round the corner
There's a group of people gathered
To remember a child we mourn
The other day some man drove
His car into the crowd
Leaving people's bodies broken and torn
There are many things that I will never know
Many things that I won't ever see
But the question that really bothers me
How Reason wins against Insanity?
Up in the city hall
The mayor meets the cops
Making deals to cover up their crimes
But over here
Are people feeding people
Every person works to move the line
In the states
The legislature's overtaken
Sold the highest bidder every time
On the ground
People caring for the wounded
Victims of this country's latest violent crime
There are many things that I will never know
Many things that I won't ever see
But the question that really bothers me
How Reason wins against Insanity?
In the streets
The people are still marching
Still striving for the prize they never got
In the capitol
There's no sympathy or help
For the workers who are not allowed to stop
On the TVs
We watch our nation's helpless leaders
Held hostage to the madness they've bought
In the homes
We hug our little kids and hope
They never have to fight what we have fought
There are many things that I will never know
Many things that I won't ever see
But the question that really bothers me
How Reason wins against Insanity?
What would it take
To make it all worth it
When it's not worth anything?
What would it make
If it turned out to be worth it
Would it not change anything?
For fuck's sake
Could it ever be worth it
When it cost us everything?
What would it take
To make it all worth it
When it's not worth anything? Anything?
To make it all worth it
When it's not worth anything?
What would it make
If it turned out to be worth it
Would it not change anything?
For Goodness' sake
Could it ever be worth it
When it cost us everything?
What would it take
To make it all worth it
When it's not worth anything?
Just down the street
There's a thousand people marching
Fists raised, outraged, for the cause
But over here
Are a hundred people shopping
Buying things that they don't need and they don't want
Round the corner

To remember a child we mourn

There are many things that I will never know
Many things that I won't ever see
