Lonely Planet

[Verse 1] Planet Earth is slowing down Overseas, underground Wherever you look around Lord, take me by the hand Lead me through these desert sands To the shores of a promised land [Pre-Chorus] You make me start when you look into my heart And see me for who I really am [Chorus] If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself [Verse 2] I didn't care if the sun didn't shine And the rain didn't fall from the sky I just cared about myself From this world to the next And from the next back to this By our actions we are bound We're running out of love Running out of hate Running out of space for the human race Planet Earth is slowing down [Pre-Chorus] You make me cry when you look into my eyes And see me for who I really am [Chorus] If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself If you can't change the world, change yourself And if you can't change yourself then change your world [Outro] I'm in love with the planet I'm standing on I can't stop I can't stop thinking of All the people I've ever loved All the people I have lost All the people I'll never know All the feelings I've never shown The world's too big, and life's too short The world's too big, and life's too short The world's too big, and life's too short To be alone, to be alone
