I thought the world was getting smaller
With our nations growing closer through the years
Now I see the world is getting warmer
And people are divided by their fears
I thought that we were getting smarter 
Through science and all the things we’ve learned
But I see life is getting harder
And progress and books get burned

And I’m holed up, home alone by a TV screen
Feeling wound up by all the things I’ve seen
My mind is mixed up tryin’ to figure out what does it all mean
But made up I gotta change the scene
So won’t you save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can believe in me
Save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can care
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a far better place to be
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a cause to share

I thought our leaders sought to please us
Secure our peace, healthcare, rights and a living wage
Now I see how easy they deceive us
They’re putting walls up, they’re putting kids in a cage

And so it turns out it’s all bad news, but it’s all they got 
And it’s churned out, day after day, like it or not
I feel stressed out; it’s plain to see the politicians have lost the plot 
If I could bale out I’d be off in a shot 
So won’t you save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can believe in me
Save me from what I see
Show me that somebody can care
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a far better place to be
Save me from what I see
Show me there’s a cause to share

Won’t you save me from what I see, from where we’re heading to 
Can’t we set ourselves free, forge a path that’s true? 
Save me from what I see when so much is so wrong
Let’s be just you and me somewhere we are strong
