Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I, I always thought that I knew
I'd always have the right to
Be living in the kingdom of the good and true
And so on, but now I think I was wrong
And you were laughing along
And now I look a fool for thinkin' you were on
My side
[Verse 2]
Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
[Verse 3]
Sometimes it's hard to know where I stand
It's hard to know where I am
Well, maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand
Sometimes I get the feeling that I'm
Stranded in the wrong time
Where love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme
A sound bite
[Verse 4]
Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
Oh these days, after all the misery you made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?
[Verse 5]
Nothing left beside this old cathedral
Just the sad, lonely spires
How do you make it right?
Oh but you try
[Verse 6]
Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
Oh these days, after all the misery you made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?
