John Mayer - Waiting on the World to Change LYRICS

[lilgoalieman]

imagine the world without no rules...total chaos

[TheGoobersClan]

we are waiting on the world to change

[missdingaling]

if the ppl who are "ruling the world" mess it up, how are we suppoused to fix it?

[hogwartsprincess]

next time theres an election dont vote for the people currently in power ? Join protests, write to your state govenor about concerns etc.

[missdingaling]

haha tht would work... but ima not old enuff to vote yet. its like (no offense) but the adults are creating this huge mess with the world, and its up to us to save it, but nooo, were only teens, we cant do anything "important". haha, yea, our state gov. would totally listen to a kid.

[hogwartsprincess]

I know the feeling. I cant vote yet either but maybe you could start a petition against a specific thing being done that you don't like eg. If you think more should be done to protect the environment and then send it to your state gov. ? Thinking about it though, they should listen to us - we're the people that'll be voting for their party in a few years time so they'd be idiots if they didnt listen to us

[missdingaling]

ik, in a few years, we are the ones who will inherit the earth, and as it is right now, theres a lot to do to fix it. I mean, if they do some serious damage- not that they already havent- they dont really have to worry about it, they're going to die sooner than later, leaving us with a whole lot to do, and no immediate results, if we slowly stop global climate change, the earth will take at least 50 years to get back to its "original" state.

i fucking agree like u rock

[missdingaling]

thanks, i agree, who isnt waiting on the world to change? we are always waiting for something, for luck, for love at first sight, for money, for more time. why sould we wait for the world to change? why should we wait for all those things? why dont we just go out and try? because we are lazy. because we are biased. because we are scared. because... u could probably give me a million reasons that still wont explain: why?

[mentalman297]

[myrna609]

[pietron3000]

i love this part:

Now if we had the power

To bring our neighbors home from war

They woulda never missed a Christmas

No more ribbons on the door

When you trust your television

What you get is what you got

'cause when they own the information ooohhh,

They can bend it all they want!

[myselffull]

Me and all my friends

We're all misunderstood

They say we stand for nothing and

There's no way we ever could

Now we see everything is going wrong

With the world and those who lead it

We just feel like we don't have the means

To rise above and beat it
