Hand Made Hard Times Handed Back lyrics

I was just a kid when I found out how cruel the world could be Faded pictures from forgotten times of endless misery I lit a candle but I could not know why We didn't talk about it anymore, the page already turned Of all the things they had tried to teach Indifference is what I learned "Light a candle and you have done all you can" Well I've watched as blind eyes turned away again And seen iron wrought convictions as they've bent Want to believe that it's not on your hands So easy to pretend there's someone else who gives a damn So easy, but so hard to forget You can change the channel but it doesn't change the end It looks like business as usual again Drowned in your culture of "peace" You turn your back to the "beast" It's so easy to do So easy
