Waitin' at the traffic lights Your skin is cold And your fists clenched tight At first we're just strangers But now I know you well It's crazy I know But under your cold There's a heart beating just like mine And God only knows I've felt that cold I've felt that damp risin' up inside I don't know your name but I know who you are You're like a child who's screaming 'Save me from the dark' Somebody hold me Somebody own me Somebody take away this pain Somebody hold me And bring me back to life again It's a God ugly world If the tables were turned Would you have what it takes to survive It's a God ugly world When you're not being heard And you say you've been left there to die It's a God ugly world It's a God ugly world It's a God ugly world You were once a father, once a mother Once a sister to someone else's brother The journey was short But it took your whole life You know your own pride It's crazy I know But under your cold There's a heart beating just like mine And God only knows I've felt that cold I've felt that damp risin' up inside I don't know your name but I know who you are You're like a child who's screaming 'Save me from the dark' Somebody hold me Somebody own me Somebody take away this pain Somebody hold me And bring me back to life again It's a God ugly world If the tables were turned Would you have what it takes to survive It's a God ugly world When you're not being heard And you feel like you're left there to die It's a God ugly world It's a God ugly world It's a God ugly world It's crazy I know But under your cold There's a heart beating just like mine And God only knows I've felt the cold I've felt the damp risin' up inside
