what's the use in hoping  when you always get let down  what's the use in smiling  when all you wanna do is frown  i'm drowning, in a sea of hate-filled eyes  and she's screaming  but no one hears her cries  is anybody hear to see a band  did anybody come to hear a song  does anyone believe in magic  is anybody here to sing along  people shove me down they're coming from all sides  and as i look around  something just don't seem right  I i feel so all alone  though the people inundate  I i see no joy or desperation  only senseless hate    is this the same scene  that i used to think i loved  or was i just na¯ve  and were they always out for blood  i've seen better days,  but i know that we can make a change  i've seen better days but we can change!
