Is this really what we want? Is this really what we need?
Six billion people staring at their feet
You could drop them to the floor
And they would hope for more

And it's hard, I know
We're all scared, but what for?
And maybe we will all survive
And service with a smile

So you can tell me what you think you'd do
If you ruled the world for a second or two
Maybe you could change things
And tell me would it be all fine
When you could see that they've forgiven her in their eyes
Tell me would you change them?

Just give me a name, give me a right
Take all I know from out of sight
All that I am, all that I need
Can you complete me?

And give me a war, give me some peace
Give me someone I'd rather be
Follow the same, you can take it away
'Cause there's no one else to blame

The smallest things are our biggest cracks
And is it a wonder we all collapse?
And we strive
For more in life

So tell me what you think you'd do
If the world really needed you
Maybe you would help them
But tell me what you think you'd do
If I owned the world for a second or two
Would you and could you help me when, when, when...

When you could give me a name, give me a right
Take all I know from out of sight
All that I am, all that I need
So just complete me

And give me a war, give me some peace
Give me someone I'd rather be
And battle the same, you can take it away
'Cause there's no one else to blame

So give me a name and give me a right
Take all I am from out of sight
And all I am, all that I need
Can you complete me?
