Lyrics
I'm not thinkinag about what is wrong and right
All I want to know is what will get me through the night
Cause I'm tired of the world and all of its scars
Its kinda like drunken men in stupid bars
I don't want many things
And I have few words to say
But I still remember how I felt that day
Looking through the corner window
You can see the landscape in my mind
I still can't remember what I'd like to find
Hold me up into a place where planes fly free
And people just let people be
Let our children run and play
For right now they don't know
If Mom and Dad should stay or go
Sara came right down and sat next to me
And then she cried for my family
A few kind words was all that she said
Yet that moment will be forever stuck in my head
