[Verse 1]
They never feel
They don't even seem real
They never try
So why should I?
Something is wrong
Something invisible is gone
They never mind
So why should I?
[Verse 2]
Don't you get hurt?
Don't you ever need a cure?
Don't you get tired?
And why and why?
After awhile
After neither one arrives
They won't decide
So why should I?
[Chorus]
When they hand it over, give it all away
Well, how can you explain?
When they hand it over, no one gets their way
No one gets the blame
[Verse 3]
Don't you get tired
Of everyone that you admire?
They'll never die
So why should I?
Something is wrong
Something invisible is gone
They never mind
So why should I?
[Chorus]
When they hand it over, give it all away
Well, how can you explain?
When they hand it over, no one gets their way
No one gets the blame
