Consider this empty world Watch it as it falls Sign it in your head Sign it in your head Ear their empty words The falsity they show Sign it in your head Sign it in your head Don't let 'em tear you down Get up n' shout it loud Don't let' em tread on you Don't let 'em take you for a fool Consider this empty world Watch it as it falls Sign it in your head Sign it in your head Ear their empty words The falsity they show Sign it in your head Sign it in your head [Chorus:] You're tryin' on To save your soul from their lies You carry on But they wanna change your mind You gotta hold on An' leave this senseless world behind Your personal style of life The light you got inside Don't let 'em take it away Don't let 'em take it away They try to mend your head Makin' you someone else Don't trust in what they say Don't trust in what they say [Chorus]
