[verse]
I, I always thought that I knew
I'd always have the right to
Be living in the kingdom of the good and true
It�s so long, but now I think I was wrong
And you were laughing along
And now I look a fool for thinking you were on...
my side
Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?


Sometimes it's hard to know where I stand
It's hard to know where I am
Well maybe it's a puzzle I don't understand
But sometimes
I get the feeling that I'm
Stranded in the wrong time
Where love is just a lyric in a children's rhyme,

[chorus]
a sound bite
Is it any wonder that I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?

[verse]
Oh, these days,
after all the misery you made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?

[bridge]
Nothing left inside this old cathedral
Just the sad lonely spires
How do you make it right?

[chorus]
Oh, but you try
Is it any wonder I'm tired?
Is it any wonder that I feel uptight?
Is it any wonder I don't know what's right?
Oh, these days,
after all the misery you made
Is it any wonder that I feel afraid?
Is it any wonder that I feel betrayed?
