​we’re so very lost

[Verse 1]
Please tell me, Mister. where to put my heart, for
'Cause I've seen too much pain
There's war all over, power is corrupt but
Things, they never change
And would it really matter if I'm born to a different name
Peace is peace and love is love
Aren't we all just the same?

[Chorus]
Oh, baby
We're so lost
We're so very lost now

[Verse 2]
There was a time when I was around
To make it okay
But people shout about how they felt about being left out on politics in those days
But we consume everyone's empty illusions of what it means to be free
While lovers die and innocents cry, we say
Thank god, it wasn't me

[Chorus]
Oh, baby
We're so lost
We're so very lost now

[Verse 3]
And what's the price of an innocent life
Oh, who can say?
Babies born under the shadow of a knife and
Why should it be this way?
Open your door and imagine war, be afraid for
This is what we've allowed
The age of ignorance has crept our way and
We are all so very lost now

[Chorus]
Oh, baby
We're so very lost
We're so very lost now

[Verse 1]
Please tell me, Mister. where to put my heart, for
I've seen to much pain
This one lover's power is corrupt but
Things they'll never change
It shouldn't really matter if I were born to some other name
Peace is peace and love is love
Aren't we all just the same?

[Outro]
Oh, baby
We're so very lost
We're so very lost now
