One hand reaches out
And pulls a lost soul from harm
While a thousand more
Go unspoken for
And they say
What good have you done
By saving just this one
Its like whispering a prayer in the fury of a storm

And I hear them saying
You'll never change things
And no matter what you do
It's still the same thing
It's not the world that I am changing
I do this so
This world will know
That it will not change me

This heart
Still believes
That love and mercy
Still exist
While all the hatred rage
And so many say
That love is all pointless
In madness such as this
It's trying to stop a fire from the moisture of a kiss

And I hear them saying
You'll never change things
And no matter what you do
It's still the same thing
It's not the world that I am changing
I do this so
This world will know
That it will not change me

As long as one heart still holds on
Then hope is never really gone

And I hear them saying
You'll never change things
And no matter what you do
It's still the same thing
It's not the world that I am changing
I do this so
This world we know
Never changes me

What I do is so
This world will know
Will not change me
