Say what you will, I’ve turned around
And I am looking at my past
Standing there to confront me,
Make me whole again at last

I heard you saying, “It’s never gonna happen”
I heard you praying for the worst
But I am the train they call the City of the Future
And there’s a feeling in my chest

Say what you will, say what you will
I’ve turned around, I’ve turned around

Say what you will, I’ve set the table
Say what you will, the food is scarce
Eat what you need ‘til you are able
Then climb on board and do your best

I heard you saying you believed that we were winning
But you ignored those left behind
I am the ship they call the Ever-Widening Circle
And there’s a song in my mind

Say what you will, we’ve turned around
Now that I’m captain, here’s my hand
Say what you will, we’ve turned around
We are returning to the land
