Wandering afar and seeking (seeking)
Whatever you're looking for I don't know
But, if you find it
Please, won't you tell me so, oh yeah

Now every young fool (young fool)
Throughout the land (throughout the land)
Looking for someone who understands
While all the old ones (all the old ones)
They discredit this (they discredit this)
Talkin' 'bout the good old days that they miss

See how blind you've been
See how the world you livin' in is changing
Lord have mercy (changing)
All around us is greed and hate
We better wake up, or soon it will be too late

I guess what they want (I guess what they want)
Is some peace of mind
But, I know it's very hard to find
You can't borrow it (no, you can't borrow it)
From strength (from strength)
Piece of mind got to come from within

We oughta stop and think
The signs show the brink of destruction (destruction)
Now, everybody stop to take heed
Or else someone who really, really need it

See how confused you are
Everyone near and far, is seeking (seeking)
Whatever you're looking for I don't know
But, if you find it
Please, won't you tell me so, oh yeah

See how blind you've been
See how the world you livin' in is changing
Lord, have mercy (changing)
All around us is greed and hate
We better wake up, or soon it will be too late

We oughta stop and think
The signs show the brink of destruction
