I used to take it on face value
Everyone was really who they said they were
But more and more I understood
That people could be less
Or something more
The problem is the broken trust
Between us now and I just want to know what's true
I trusted those who hadn't earned it
Who lied to me like I deserved it
Me and you
Show me now
Who you are
Let me see
What's really in your heart
Show me how
You can help
Everyone
And not just yourself
I'm preaching to the choir
But I'm glad I've got a choir where my voice is heard
When screaming into the abyss
Doesn't even feel amiss
We sing along
Show me now
Who you are
Let me see
What's really in your heart
Show me how
You can help
Everyone
And not just yourself
You see the thing is
I don't really understand
How could I
Why should I
When these are your demands
You could show compassion
You could try to understand
How could you
Why should you
When you have the upper hand
Show me now
Who you are
Let me see
What's really in your heart
Show me how
You can help
Everyone
And not just yourself
