The Worm Has Turned



THE WORM HAS TURNED

WRITTEN BY JEFF R HILTON

2018

THIS HEARTS BEEN HATED
IT'S BEEN LOVED
USED AND CHEATED, BADLY MISTAKEN
FRIGHTENED AND SHAKEN
ON FIRE OR STONE COLD
THIS HEART I SWEAR IS GETTING OLD
SHY OR BOLD, WHICH ONE IS IT NOW

I SEE THE WAY THINGS ARE NOW
AND IT BREAKS MY HEART
WHERE'S ALL THE LOVE GONE IN 2018
SWALLOWED BY ALL THE HATE I'VE SEEN
THE WORM HAS TURNED
NOT AT WAR BUT WE'RE AT WAR
FORGOT WHAT LOVE WAS FOR

I CAN'T SEE THE END
BUT WAIT MAYBE I CAN
CHANGED SWEEPING CHANGES
TIME TO STOP THIS EVIL MIND
BETTER OFF WITHOUT HIS KIND
TIRED OF ALL THE LIES
STIRRING CHAFING READY TO RISE
MY HEART FORGIVES
BUT IT NEVER FORGETS

THERE'S SOME THINGS
 THAT SHOULD NEVER BE
AND SOMETIMES STUPID PEOPLE 
SET THEM FREE 
TO SPREAD THEIR HATE
AND MISERY
THERE'S NO RHYTHM 
THERE'S NO RHYME 
WE USED TO BE HAPPY
ALL THE TIME

NOW THERE'S TOO MANY
HEARTS STEEPED IN SORROW
CAN BARELY FACE TOMORROW
THANK GOD THE WORM HAS TURNED
WE'LL MAKE SURE IT'S BURNED
WE'LL SEE LOVE BECOME
A THING AGAIN
COMMON SENSE THE NORM
BUT FIRST THERE'S GOT TO BE
A STORM

THIS HEARTS BEEN DOOMED
THIS HEARTS BEEN SAVED
IT'S SEEN HELL IT'S BEEN BRAVE
I EXPECT MY HEART TO KNOW DUTY
TO KNOW LOVE TO BE LOVE
TO SEE LOVE

WHO WOULD GIVE OUR COUNTRY AWAY
TO HEATHENS, SINISTER REASONS
BIG CHANGES, SWEEPING CHANGES
TIME TO TAKE IT ALL BACK
COME ON PUT YOUR HEART IN
WE'LL GET BACK TO LOVING
THEY'LL BE NO NEED FOR HATE
THIS LIFE WAS MADE FOR LIVING
OUR HEARTS MEANT TO BE FREE
MY HEART FORGIVES BUT IT
DOESN'T FORGET 
DON'T YOU FRET WE'LL GET IT ALL
BACK SOON
IN THE END WE'LL WIN
