Ever Wondered

[Verse 1]
Ever wondered why it's so hard to wake up and smile
When all the hustle's made you anxious and upset your bile?
Ever wondered why we're caught up trying to make ends meet
Forcing a calm demeanour to shake some hands to greet?
Ever wondered why the days are passing by so fast
And the cities that don't sleep are only addicted to naps?
Ever wondered why the cycle of day and night
Makes no difference to the people whose every day is a fight?
Ever wondered why the streets aren't always safe for girls?
Why the boys are brought up thinking they're all dukes and earls?
Ever wondered why they wrote up religious scripts
That discriminate and segregate through tales of myths
Ever wondered how depressing advertising is?
Fake faces, fake tales, and fake sales for fake bliss
Ever wondered why the media's controlled by men in power?
Only selective information makes its way through towers

[Chorus]
Ever wondered?
E— E— E— E— Ever wondered?
E— E— E— E— Ever wondered?
E— E— E— E— E—

[Verse 2]
Ever wondered why we're told only what we're supposed to know?
And why people hide secrets, secured tenfold?
Ever wondered why the paradox is on repeat?
The rich in air conditions, the poor facing the heat
Ever wondered why the skyscrapers shadow the slums?
The working class has to dance to industrialist drums
Ever wondered why we can't make some dreams our own
When we're trying to buy houses but we're stuck with loans?
Ever wondered why the world goes into recession
When there's enough wealth to feed a hundred nations?
Ever wondered why they're making air strikes for land?
Futures of whole countries buried in sand
Ever wondered how the pulse of the earth grows weak
As we're pillaging and destroying every acre of green?
Ever wondered how we claim to be the alpha race
And blow up all other habitats in the greed for space?

[Bridge]
It really makes me question my place
It really makes me think of this disgrace
Can we ever wonder to be better every day?
Can we ever wonder to change our ways?
Can we ever wonder to find harmony?
Can we ever wonder to find true peace?

[Chorus]
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
Ever wondered?
