[Verse 1]
How can anyone be so unkind
As to want to take another's peace of mind?
Is acceptance so implausible?

[Chorus]
Well I know how the best will fall
And the rest will follow
I know how the best will fall
And the rest will follow

[Verse 2]
It's important to recognize
In this world we live there is nothing worth dying
It's enough to say "hello," we're all human

[Chorus]
But I know how the best will fall
And the rest will follow
I know how the best will fall
And the rest will follow

[Bridge]
Is it so easy to resign
To ruin this world for everyone?
I guess when it's all said and done
It's just something in our design
It's just something in our design
It's just something in our design
[Verse 3]
We are all of us so capable of
The greatest acts of hate and the worst acts of love
I wonder sometimes what's the matter with us all

[Chorus]
And I know how the best will fall
And the rest will follow
I know how the best will fall
And the rest will follow
