Can't make the change
Somebody's funeral
Somebody's wife
Somebody's gunshot
Somebody's life
Somebody's destitute
Their suffering unseen
And I can't make the difference
And I can't meet the cost
And I can't make the difference
And I can't change the world
Somebody's country
In somebody's hands
Somebody's freedom
Is suddenly banned
Somebody's hostage
Gagged and tied
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t meet the cost
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t change the world
Somebody's torture
In some kind of cell
Somebody's heartache
In some kind of hell
Somebody's child
Walking somebody's street
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t meet the cost
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t change the world
Somebody's bombshell
Somebody's wound
Some country's famine
Their crops are ruined
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t meet the cost
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t change the world
Somebody's life
Down somebody's phone
Somebody's cruelty
In somebody's tone
Somebody's elderly
Seen no one for days
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t meet the cost
And I can’t make the difference
And I can’t change the world
