(spoken)
Can anyone hear me?
Is there anyone out there?
If you can hear this, please respond
Hello?
Is there anybody?
Anybody?
Please?
Please respond...

Things could have been different
It didn't have to be this way
And we're counting on you to make it right someday

You're too young to remember the before times
To know how wonderful civilization was
A world that bustled with people
Where food sprang out of the ground
So much to do, so many folks to love

Things could have been different
It didn't have to be this way
And we're counting on you to make it right someday

It could have been a famine, it could have been nuclear war
It could have been the carbon in the air
It could have been a virus, or the rich exploiting the poor
It could have been avoided if we'd only cared

Things could have been different
It didn't have to be this way
And we're counting on you to make it right someday

It could have been a populist uprising
It could have been a zombie apocalypse (ask your grown-up)
It doesn't matter what it was or wasn't
What matters is we didn't get it fixed

Things could have been different
It didn't have to be this way
And we're counting on you to make it right someday

Now it's not fair to lay this burden on you
It's far too much to ask a bunch of kids
But you're the only hope we can hold onto
To make the world a better one than this

Things could have been different
It didn't have to be this way
And we're counting on you to make it right someday

Now I'm not here to tell you who's to blame for
Everything with society that went wrong
I'm just trying to help you all look forward
To make a better future when I'm gone

Things could have been different
It didn't have to be this way
And we're counting on you to make it right someday
Yeah, we're counting on you to make it right someday

Things could have been different
It didn't have to be this way
...
Ooooh...
Things could have been different
So much different
So much different...
...
Things could be different
It doesn't have to be this way
