I see those gross atrocities I mourn those needless deaths I see Outrage grips my soul, their pain plays on my mind But then I can get back to life and leave it all behind Numbered emotions, a tear-drop dries away A memory the residue that's safely kept at bay
Lord, open my mind, open my soul, see the reality Come, take my emotions, turn into actions, remove the apathy Death, seen as solution, blind aggression, insensitivity Let peace begin with me!
I blame "them", they probably blame me Deluded by security Our actions may be raindrops, together they're a flood Maybe though our ignorance our own hands stained with blood Self-preoccupation, selfishness the knife Man has mastered killing but he never will give life.
