Ballad of Humankindness Songtext
von The Dears

Well I thought
That we all cared about peace
And I thought
That we′d all cry about love and loss
And I thought
That we were somehow holding on
But I'm just standing here

No one should have to
Live all of their life on their own
No one should have to
Live all of their life alone


Every time I think about what I can do
It just slips away
And every time I think that we can make things work
Well it just slips away
And I turn on the news
And there′s always some dude
Who's relentlessly bringing me down
Telling me how
There are too many
Dark people out there
Who'll never be found
Well...

No one should have to
Live all of their life on the run
No one should have to
Live all of their life on the run
No one should have to
Live that sort of life and I
Think it′s time that
We all learned forgiveness


And I can′t believe the vast amounts of people
Living on the streets
And I can't believe that I was almost one of them
And I almost died
And I can′t believe I haven't lifted a hand
And I′m just standing here
Well I'm gonna change
I′m gonna change
I'm gonna change
I'm gonna change
I′m gonna change
I′m gonna change
I'm gonna change
I′m gonna change
I'm gonna change

No one should have to
Live all of their life on their own
No one should have to
Live all of their life on their own
No one should have to
Live all of their life on their own
No one should have to
Live all of their life alone
