  • So am I still waiting
    For this world to stop hating?
    Can't find a good reason
    Can't find hope to believe in

    Drop dead, a bullet to my head
    Your words are like a gun in hand
    You can't change the state of the nation
    We just need some motivation
    These eyes have seen no conviction
    Just lies and more contradiction

    So tell me, what would you say?
    I'd say it's time to listen

    So am I still waiting
    For this world to stop hating?
    Can't find a good reason
    Can't find hope to believe in

    Ignorance and understanding
    We're the first ones to jump in line
    Out of step for what we believe in
    But who's left to stop the bleeding?
    How far will we take this?
    It's not hard to see through the fakeness

    So tell me, what would you say?
    I'd say it's time to listen

    So am I still waiting
    For this world to stop hating?
    Can't find a good reason
    Can't find hope to believe

    This can't last forever
    Time won't make things better
    I feel so alone
    Can't help myself
    And no one knows
    If this is worthless
    Tell me (tell me, tell me, tell me)
    So

    What have we done
    With a war that can't be won?
    This can't be real
    'Cause I don't know what to feel

    So am I still waiting
    For this world to stop hating?
    Can't find a good reason
    Can't find hope to believe

    So am I still waiting
    For this world to stop hating?
    Can't find a good reason
    For this world to believe Writer/s: Deryck Jason Whibley, Greig Andrew Nori
