Well I would like to think. The world hasn't seen. That all the best is still to come. And I know life ain't easy. I pass them sleeping on the streets. Their bloodstained hands and dirty feet. And I can't ignore them. Any more than I already have. Chorus:. So we laugh and we smile. And we play our games of sweet denial. But don't tell me we're forgiven. If we hold all our breath. If we kneel right down and just repent. You can't tell me we're forgiven. Start with me I cannot lie. When my heart doesn't follow my eyes. Turn away from all the suffering. That surrounds. Our time on this earth. For some their life has been a curse. I say I'm sorry and I should change. You know it just could be me someday. Chorus. So we laugh and we smile. And we play our games of sweet denial. But don't tell me we're forgiven. If we hold all our breath. If we kneel right down and just repent. You can't tell me we're forgiven. There's no way outta here. I don't wanna die and leave it all behind. Each day a part of me disappears. But who am I to judge what's been sent from above?. Chorus. We can't laugh we can't smile. When so much just ain't right. It can't go on forever. If we hold our breath. If we kneel right down and repent. You can't tell me we're forgiven no. You can't tell me we're forgiven
