We've lived in a world so cold, a world that didn't care,
Each man for himself, no time to
say a prayer.
Now we're on bended knees, praying for an end,
Can't say this world is any
better, unless we make amends.
Can you hear the silent screams of suffering beings?
Their wordless tears don't fall
on deaf ears.
For when the Spirit groans, it
can stop us in our tracks;
Forgive us now, we've gone too
far, now we're coming back.
I wanna reach out and touch you,
I wanna send you love,
It's been a month since I've seen
a smile, or even felt a hug.
Now all I do is stare at the wall
in front of me,
No one to smile or talk to, just
myself for company.
It's been a long time I've been
living on my own,
It shouldn't matter much that I
can't see anyone.
But worse than feeling lonely, is
feeling so numb;
When I look in the mirror, don't
recognize who I've become.
Feels like I'm going on hundred when I look into my eyes;
It all feels so pointless now, I
thought it'd make me wise.
No sound to break the silence, not even voices in my head,
Empty streets outside my home;
Inside, an empty bed.
But pain and suffering, they come
to make us strong.
Don't give up the fight just yet, this battle can be won.
And I hope when this is over, and
a new day has come,
That you and I can still be friends in a world that lives as One.
