This started out in my head as a more politically-charged piece… instead it turned into a gentle call-to-action with a simple but undisputable message. Pass it on!
lyrics
Well, I suppose you’ll tell me
That I cannot change a thing
Well, I hear you…
Forgive me if I try to prove you wrong
Cause someone, somewhere, told me something
I don’t know who it was
Can’t remember
But it’s the thing that helps me get along
Please play fair
Tell no lies
Be good to people
Open up your eyes
Tell me that it’s complicated
Tell me I’m a child
In the real world
A nice guy’s just a sucker with a smile
And maybe there is just no room
For sentiments like these
But no matter…
At least you were distracted for a while
Please play fair
Tell no lies
Be good to people
Open up your eyes
Don’t tell me it’s impossible
I’ve walked this road before
And believe me…
I stumble far more often than I stand
But everyone believes in something
I believe in you
So come with me
And if you fall I’ll try to lend a hand
Please play fair
Tell no lies
Be good to people
Open up your eyes
