[Verse 1]
How can you stand the silence
That pervades when we all cry?
How can you watch the violence
That erupts before your eyes?
[Verse 2]
How can you tell us something
Just to keep us hanging on?
Something that just don't mean nothing
When we see it, you are gone
[Pre-Chorus]
Clinging to some other rainbow
While we're standing waiting in the cold
Telling us the same old story
Knowing time is growing old
[Chorus]
That was a wonderful remark
I had my eyes closed in the dark
I sighed a million sighs
I told a million lies
To myself, to myself
[Verse 3]
How can we listen to you
When we know your talk is cheap?
How can we ever question
Why we give more and you keep?
How can you stand the silence
That pervades when we all cry?
How can you watch the violence
That erupts before your eyes?
[Verse 2]
How can you tell us something
Just to keep us hanging on?
Something that just don't mean nothing
When we see it, you are gone
[Pre-Chorus]
Clinging to some other rainbow
While we're standing waiting in the cold
Telling us the same old story
Knowing time is growing old
[Chorus]
That was a wonderful remark
I had my eyes closed in the dark
I sighed a million sighs
I told a million lies
To myself, to myself
[Verse 3]
How can we listen to you
When we know your talk is cheap?
How can we ever question
Why we give more and you keep?
