How come every

body's doing

Different than

 they said

Complaining th

And they'd rat

Always part of

 the new schoo

So many things

 that he don't

 know

1st CHORUS
("forgive us and take away the cries" instead of "give us and take away these cries")

Repeat intro

I've had a har

d time thinkin

g
 
I've had the h

ardest fall

I'm drowning a

nd now I'm sin

king
 
into it all

Remember the words of someone
Someone I used to know
Love everyone but keep them
Far from your soul
