So, So you think you can say
That we live in a land where all has or will come to naught
So, So you think you can say
That our world is in disarray and none of it’s your fault
So, So you like to believe
That you are a spectator watching us from far off
So, so you’d like me to think
That you are right ‘cause you’re afraid of being wrong
That's not where I belong
So, so you think I don’t see
See the Machiavelli that you strive to hide so well
So, so you think I don’t see
See that ultimately that all you care about is yourself
So, so you like to believe
That it’s about you first, last and middle above all
So, So you’d like me to think
That life is all chess and you’re a player or a pawn
It's not where I belong
So, you and I disagree
In a way we all see something that’s hazy and beyond
So, I am begging you please
Don't claim as all your own something bigger than both of us
So, go ahead and believe
What you think you’ve learned from gathering up all your scars
But know, know and never forget
That what you have learned can only ever be a part
Of where we all belong
