So if she’s somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There’s no one else could ever make me feel
I’m so alive
I hoped she’d never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I’ve searched the universe and found myself
Within’ her eyes
So if she’s somewhere near me
I hope to God she hears me
There’s no one else could ever make me feel
I’m so alive
I hoped she’d never leave me
Please God you must believe me
I’ve searched the universe and found myself
Within’ her eyes
Look at the shoes your filling
Look at the blood we're spilling
Look at the world we're killing
The way we've always done before.
Look in the doubt we've wallowed
Look at the leaders we've followed
Look at the lies we've swallowed
And I don't want to hear no more.
When you're talkin to yourself and nobody's home
You can fool yourself you came in this world alone...
My hands are tied
For all I've seen has changed my mind
But still the wars go on as the years go by
With no love of God or human rights
'Cause all these dreams are swept aside
By bloody hands of the hypnotized
Who carry the cross of homicide
And history bears the scars of our civil wars.
We all come in from the cold, we come down from the wire
An everybody warms themselves to a different fire
When sometimes we get burned, you'd think sometime we'd learn
The one you love is the one that should take you higher
You ain't got no one, you better go back out and find her.
And I don't need your civil war
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
Your power hungry sellin' soldiers
In a human grocery store.
Look at your young men fighting
Look at your women crying
Look at your young men dying
The way they've always done before.
Look at the hate we're breeding
Look at the fear we're feeding
Look at the lives we're leading
The way we've always done before.
