I must have dreamed a thousand dreams Em Em
Been haunted by a million screams A A
But I can hear the marching feet D D
They're moving into the street Em Em

Now, did you read the news today? Em Em
They say the danger has gone away A A
But I can see the fire's still alight D D
They're burning into the night Em Em

Making too many problems D Em
And not much love to go around G D Em
Can't you see this is a land of confusion? G A D Em

AzwAroAmtkAma:
Oh, superman, where are you now?
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel, these men of power
Are losing control by the hour

This is the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But there's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is a land of confusion
refren:
This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in

EmzwEmrotka:
I won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep

There's too many men, there's too many people
Making too many problems
And not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of confusion?
refren:
Now, this is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth fighting for

This is the world we live in
And these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start showing
Just where our lives are going to.
