I woke today, I was crying Lost in a lost world So many people are dying Lost in a lost world Some of them are living an illusion Bounded by the darkness of their minds In their eyes it's nation, against nation, against nation With racial pride Sounds... Thinking only of themselves They shun the light (shun the light) They think they're right (think they're right) Living in their empty shells
Oh, can you see their bodies thrashing (so many people, so many people) Crashing down around their feet Angry people in the street Telling them they've had their fill Of politics, people who kill
Grow... the seed of evolution (so many people, so many people) Revolution never won It's just another form of gun To do again what they have done With all our brothers' youngest sons (so many people, so many people)
Everywhere you go you see them searching Everywhere you turn you feel the pain Everyone is looking for the answers Well look again, come on my friend Love will find us in the end Come on my friend (on my friend) We've got to bend (got to bend) Down on our knees and say a prayer
Oh, can you see the world is pining (so many people, so many people) Pining for someone who really cares enough to share his love With all of us so we can be An ever loving family Have we forgotten who loves who (so many people, so many people) Children from a family tree That's longer than a centipede Started long ago when you and I Where only love.... (so many people, so many people)
I woke today, I was crying Lost in a lost world So many people are dying Lost in a lost world So many people, so many people People lost in a lost world So many people, so many people People lost in a lost world
