I see things happening
They fall before my eyes
Pretend I'm blind
Like I could never see
The heartache that's not mine
And fills my head
Can I just laugh away
The sights that tear my soul
And makes me sick
No I could never be
So cold to look away

It made me mind
Is it so wrong to want to make a difference?
I'd like to think there's no excuse
Is it a crime to want things better for yourself?
How you wanna live is up to you...
Is up to you!

Wish I could be like you
Indifferent to it all
Like life's a joke
Sarcastic cynical
Like everything's OK
But it just won't work
In life you have to choose
To stay at home and hide
Or stand up and fight
If caring's my offense
Then I proudly stand
Accused so how about you

Is it so wrong to want to make a difference?
I'd like to think there's no excuse
Is it a crime to want things better for yourself?
How you wanna live is up to you...
IS UP TO YOU
IS UP TO YOU!
IS UP TO YOU!
IS UP TO YOU!
IS UP TO YOU
IS UP TO YOU

IS UP TO YOU.
