Whether I'm Wrong Songtext
I don′t want to raise my hand
The world is covered in rage
Voices calling out in anger
Entering erratically into another age
Shadow puppets on the wall
I don't know who to believe
In the darkness standing tall
With a smile upon your face
And I have a right to
To have a voice, have a say
Whether I′m wrong or whether I'm right
It doesn't really matter anymore
We put up a wall and you put up a fight
Now it seems we′ve forgotten what all of that was for
Whether you don′t want to or whether you can't see
What is right in front of your face
Time is running out and we′re already losing ground
With the human race
I don't want to raise my hand
I don′t know why I'm scared to say
I feel like I want to call out
I feel like I want to run away
And I don′t know why anyone
Should have to suffer anymore
Yeah, well I don't know a whole lot of anything
But I do wonder what all of this is for
And you have a right to
To have a voice, have a say
Whether I'm wrong or whether I′m right
It doesn′t really matter anymore
I put up a wall and you put up a fight
Now it seems we've forgotten what all of that was for
Whether you don′t want to or whether you can't see
What is right in front of your face
Time is running out and we′re already losing ground
With the human race
Believe me, if all those endearing young charms
Which I gaze on so fondly today
Were to change by tomorrow and fleet in my arms
Like fairy gifts fading away
Thou wouldst still be adored as this moment thou art
Let thy loveliness fade as it will
And around the dear ruin each wish of my heart
Would entwine itself ardently still
It is not while beauty and youth are thine own
And thy cheeks unprofaned by a tear
That the fervour and faith of a soul can be known
To which time has but made thee more dear
No, the heart which has truly loved never forgets
But as truly loves on to the close
As the sunflower turns to her god when he sets
The same look which she gave when he rose
The world is covered in rage
Voices calling out in anger
Entering erratically into another age
Shadow puppets on the wall
I don't know who to believe
In the darkness standing tall
With a smile upon your face
And I have a right to
To have a voice, have a say
Whether I′m wrong or whether I'm right
It doesn't really matter anymore
We put up a wall and you put up a fight
Now it seems we′ve forgotten what all of that was for
Whether you don′t want to or whether you can't see
What is right in front of your face
Time is running out and we′re already losing ground
With the human race
I don't want to raise my hand
I don′t know why I'm scared to say
I feel like I want to call out
I feel like I want to run away
And I don′t know why anyone
Should have to suffer anymore
Yeah, well I don't know a whole lot of anything
But I do wonder what all of this is for
And you have a right to
To have a voice, have a say
Whether I'm wrong or whether I′m right
It doesn′t really matter anymore
I put up a wall and you put up a fight
Now it seems we've forgotten what all of that was for
Whether you don′t want to or whether you can't see
What is right in front of your face
Time is running out and we′re already losing ground
With the human race
Believe me, if all those endearing young charms
Which I gaze on so fondly today
Were to change by tomorrow and fleet in my arms
Like fairy gifts fading away
Thou wouldst still be adored as this moment thou art
Let thy loveliness fade as it will
And around the dear ruin each wish of my heart
Would entwine itself ardently still
It is not while beauty and youth are thine own
And thy cheeks unprofaned by a tear
That the fervour and faith of a soul can be known
To which time has but made thee more dear
No, the heart which has truly loved never forgets
But as truly loves on to the close
As the sunflower turns to her god when he sets
The same look which she gave when he rose
