lyrics

Show me how to live a life
That's pure, simple and free
And I will try to live a life
That's humble and in peace

Show me how to rid myself
From all that is not clean
And wash my mouth from the bitter taste
Which burns from the words that I speak
Show me how to see the world
What justice can really mean
For the world I see is full of hate
And destroys any love that I feel

Help me undo what I have done
All I can do is hit and run
Something’s standing in the way
I know I need to change
The record goes on and on
And I ask myself
Is there something wrong with my brain

Help me understand myself
And I'll be a better man
And take the world for what it is
And rest my mind at last
Maybe one day things will change
But till then I'm buried in the sand
Cos a bitter man is a lonely man
And a lonely life he’ll live

Help me undo what I have done
All I can do is hit and run
Something’s standing in the way
And I know I need to change
The record goes on and on
And I ask myself
Is there something wrong with my brain
