When up is down
And in is out
Sure as doubt
Hello becomes good-bye

When black is white
Then dark is light
Wrong is right
And truth becomes a lie

Divisions multiplying
The cold bites into bone
We’re laughing as we’re crying
Freezin’ into stone

When always never
Lasts forever
Alone together
‘Til the very end

When heads is tails
We win and fail
An’ silence wails
My foe was once my friend

We’re careless as we’re caring
Forgetting what we’ve learned
Selfish as we’re sharing
Drowning as we burn

Our freedom is in prison
We choose not to decide
Watching television
As the world burns down outside

When left meets right
And day meets night
The blind see light
We finally have begun

When rich and poor
Learn less is more
No civil war
Can we all live as one

Divisions multiplying
The cold bites into bone
We’re laughing as we’re crying
Freezin’ into stone

When winning for our neighbors
Means winning for ourselves
More listening, less talkin’
Let’s teach our children well
