Years ago, the early thirties there was trouble
A whole nation of discouraged people
Two lefty are made a deal
Yeah, we moved along
But today, still seeing worry on the people's face
The banks took all confidence out of this place
And there's no money to be made
But we'll find our way
Everything's gonna be okay, it always is
Cause ever since the world began
When the people go down
They get wrapped back up again
I know that it's hard to imagine
But it's gonna happen
And I'll see you on the other side of it all
There's a town in Germany that had to build a wall
Couldn't get along, so they just divided it
But then they tore it down
And they moved along
But still, across the map
There's all this tension built
A whole world living by division's will
But I'd like to think it'll change
You know it's ain't it had before
So I wouldn't close your mind just yet
Cause ever since the world began
When the people go down
They get wrapped back up again
I know that it's hard to imagine
But it's gonna happen
And I'll see you on the other side of it all
I know it could seem like forever
But in the span of it all, you know it really ain't too long
Cause it's been from slavery to freedom
Enemies, and now we need them
And arguing the final reason
Of it all




I'm ignorant to accepting
Out of touch to connecting
Blown up to erecting
Underdog to elected
Followers to leaders
Illiterates to readers
Skeptics to believers
Chameleons to meters
How's everybody still talking
How the world's going down, down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
When ever since the world began
When the people go down
They get wrapped back up again
I know that it's hard to imagine
But it's gonna happen
And I'll see you on the other side of it all
Since the world began
When the people go down
When they get wrapped back up again
I know that it's hard to imagine
But it's gonna happen
And I'll see you on the other side of it all
I'll see you on the other side of it all
