|
In the silence of the night, can you hear the cries? |
|
Can you feel suffering? |
|
In the eyes of young America, the tears begin to fall |
|
The streets are filled with predators and broken hearts |
|
Shot down and left for dead, so victimless crime |
|
Those satellites are watching everything decline |
|
Words have been spoken, promises broken |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
|
Anger, frustration, mind manipulation |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
|
Can you feel the suffering? |
|
IF you have ears, let them hear; if you have eyes, let them see |
|
Can you feel? |
|
In your face another tragedy, another waste of life |
|
Your sanity will push the image from your mind |
|
Cut down in agony, this culture of death |
|
A trail of pain that takes away your very breath |
|
Dying traditions, selfish ambitions |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
|
Anger, frustration, sheer desperation |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
|
There's no vision, there's no life |
|
Is there time to get it right? |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
|
Will the sun refuse to shine? |
|
Will the stars fall from the sky? |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
|
In the silence of the night, can you hear the cries? |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
|
Can you feel the suffering, can you pay the price? |
|
Tears in the eyes of the world |
