Lyrics
Try To Understand
How could it be so long ago that we were pure at heart?
What's happened to this world of ours? We tear each one apart.
And I must take a stand, be a better man, try to understand
Help to mend the scars, try to bend the bars, lend a helping hand
And how can you stand there, alone, not make a sound?
The truth in your hand helps you stay above the ground
And how could it be so long ago that we were pure at heart?
And how can you stand there, alone, note make a sound?
The truth in your hand helps you stay above the ground
And how can you stand there, alone, note make a sound?
The truth in your hand helps you stay above the ground
Help to mend the scars, try to bend the bars, learn to understand
Just try to understand
