hey ya
all the things you've been denied, would it change you?
would you feel alive?
but all that's left now
are these words that i've been trying to say to you now
and together we'll get by somehow
all you ever wanted was someone to find
the truth you hide from everyone deep inside
hey ya, hey ya
you're the only one i want
and i would drown to save you from
the sinking thoughts you feel
and i love you just the same
so don't you ever feel ashamed
'cause we all get tired of fighting
just to feel like we belong
and i know you feel forgotten
but i've been here all along
