[Verse 1]
When there is nowhere left to go
When there is nothing left to show
When my shoes are worn to the soles
[Pre-Chorus]

And every word I'm screaming is another going unreceived
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]

When I've committed it to stone
When I've brought it to my home
[Pre-Chorus]
Here they come on down the street
With their torches in the air, they've got it out for me

Yeah they caught me in the night down on my knees
And every word I'm screaming is another going unreceived
[Chorus]
Don't you worry 'bout your bad dreams
'Cause I'm not in them
Don't you worry 'bout what change brings
'Cause you can't stop it
Don't you worry 'bout your bad dreams
'Cause I'm not in them
Don't you worry 'bout what change brings
'Cause you can't stop it
