I’ve been told I’ve been bold to believe in you
To hold to the hope that we’d make it through
But the world should know that when the work grows old
And I’m weary of waving a banner,
I wish that we were better

I’ve spent a lifetime workin’ just to make a name
Now the one I was given isn't me today
‘Cause I’m cold. I’m bold, but in a different way
And I’m weary of waving a banner
And I wish that we were better
I wish that we were better

No need reading the news today
Nothin’s ever gonna change

I’ve spent a lifetime workin’ just to make a name
Now the one I was given isn't me today
‘Cause I’m cold. I’m bold, but in a different way
And I’m weary of waving a banner
And I wish that I’d been better
I wish I could be better

No need reading the news today
Nothin’s ever gone, nothing’s ever gonna change
I’d rather dream about better days
Than believe that they could come
Believe that they would come our way

Nothin’s ever gone, nothing’s ever gonna change

I’ve been told I’ve been bold to believe in you
