|
You can't say we shall and not fight through hell |
|
You can't say we will and not dare to deal |
|
You can't shout out peace and then vanish in the crowd |
|
You can't ride the storm without some effect |
|
You can't steal the spoil and not pay the debt |
|
You can't wave a sign that spells "evil" and feel really proud |
|
You can't sing a song with no melody |
|
You can't say we're one without unity |
|
You can't form a line if you're sacred to stand alone |
|
You can't pray for grace and then smack her face |
|
You can't speak of hope and then crack a joke |
|
You can say you're there but time knows how much you've grown |
|
Put a face to your somebody |
|
Can you say your name? |
|
Or would you rather stay unknown? |
|
Can you show your face? |
|
Or are you fearful of it shown? |
|
Can you feel your heart? |
|
Or does it beat for you alone? |
|
Lift your glass up high |
|
Say that your truth will never lie |
|
If your love cannot be moved |
|
You can't look at me and not see yourself |
|
You can't say "for them" and not for who else |
|
You can't truly bless and not bless the good of all |
|
You can't serve the rich and desert the poor |
|
You can't hear their cries and just close the door |
|
You can't say you're down and not take it to the wall |
|
You can't benefit from one's detriment |
|
You can't find the serum and not cure the sick |
|
You can't free the slave to enslave them differently |
|
You can't see the right only from your sight |
|
You can't see the wrong and just go along |
|
Or is that the way you would want your fate to read |
|
Put a face to your somebody |
|
Can you say your name? |
|
Or would you rather stay unknown? |
|
Can you show your face? |
|
Or are you fearful of it shown? |
|
Can you feel your heart? |
|
Or does it beat for you alone? |
|
Lift your glass up high |
|
Say that your truth will never lie |
|
If your love cannot be moved |
|
You can't make a pledge and then slip the script |
|
You can't say the words and not move your lips |
|
You can't be confused and still say you understand |
|
You can't be a friend but not through thin and thick |
|
You can't be a click but in danger split |
|
You can't evenly share and then grab the biggest hand |
|
You can't say you do but then show you don't |
|
You can't say you will and make sure you won't |
|
You can't want for change and not do what you need to do |
|
You can't give up all and then take back all you give |
|
You can't live to die but you can die to live |
|
Or is that too much to ask of the you in you? |
|
Put a face to your somebody |
|
Can you say your name? |
|
Or would you rather stay unknown? |
|
Can you show your face? |
|
Or are you fearful of it shown? |
|
Can you feel your heart? |
|
Or does it beat for you alone? |
|
Lift your glass up high |
|
Say that your truth will never lie |
|
If your love cannot be moved |
