So many people in the world today I was sure that I could change them all But my blissfully ignorant naivete Was the fastest way to take a fall You know I used to be so condescending If you wouldn't take a public stand Now I know I can't go on pretending That's a fair or just demand Chorus You know I tried to make a difference That was real But too many times when I was crushed Beneath the wheel Taught me the best that I can do Is to appeal To the better angels of our nature I used to be convince that I was right Looking out through a fanatic's eyes Seeing idealistic shades of black and white Vowing how I'd never compromise But I burned up all my righteous anger Many, many years ago Now I leave it to somebody younger Who hasn't learned the things I know Repeat Chorus Before you leave like some medieval gentry Off on a fools crusade Will you let the mystic cords of memory Keep you from the mistakes I made Repeat Chorus
