The world’s changed, or I have known differently



The world’s changing, or I’ve known differently
People are different now, or I’ve known different people .
They say “I see you” , but they see not;
The world’s changing, or I’ve known differently.

The world’s ending, or is it just the beginning?
I know you, you know me ,or we know not each other at all.
They say “I need you”, but kneed is what they need,
The world’s changing ,or I’ve known differently.

The world’s against you, but you’re standing tall
I say, you say , we say not;
The world’s changing, why not change you?
The world’s changing, or I’ve known differently.
