Close Your Eyes - Hope Slips Away (The World Is Ours To Change) lyrics
[Close Your Eyes - Hope Slips Away The World Is Ours To Change lyrics]
Take a look around and tell me
What it is you see?
Corruption and intolerance in a world
That's fueled by greed
Hatred and selfishness drive neighbors to war
When was the last time we asked
What it is we're fighting for?
How long have we been living without purpose?
While judgement is held over my head
Blindly we accept this without question
And slowly wait for our days to end
Who will stand up and make a difference?
We only have ourselves to blame
(the future is in our hands)
Surely this is not what we're made for
When will we realize the world
Is ours to change?
Each and every day it's still the same
And I can't just look away
We're standing on the brink
And I for one will not stand by
And watch as our hope slips away
Who will stand up and make a difference?
We only have ourselves to blame
(the future is in our hands)
Surely this is not what we're made for
When will we realize the world
Is ours to change?
You see all this corruption
And senseless unjustice
No matter where your eyes turn
You cannot ignore the truth
And so I'm asking you to stand with me
When will we stand and say enough is enough?
Open your eyes and take a
Stand instead of giving up
When will we stand and say enough is enough?
Open your eyes and take a
Stand instead of giving up
Who will stand up and make a difference?
(The future is in our hands)
We only have ourselves to blame
(The world is ours to change)
Who will stand up and make a difference?
(The future is in our hands)
We only have ourselves to blame
The world is ours to change
What it is you see?
Corruption and intolerance in a world
That's fueled by greed
Hatred and selfishness drive neighbors to war
When was the last time we asked
What it is we're fighting for?
How long have we been living without purpose?
While judgement is held over my head
Blindly we accept this without question
And slowly wait for our days to end
Who will stand up and make a difference?
We only have ourselves to blame
(the future is in our hands)
Surely this is not what we're made for
When will we realize the world
Is ours to change?
Each and every day it's still the same
And I can't just look away
We're standing on the brink
And I for one will not stand by
And watch as our hope slips away
Who will stand up and make a difference?
We only have ourselves to blame
(the future is in our hands)
Surely this is not what we're made for
When will we realize the world
Is ours to change?
You see all this corruption
And senseless unjustice
No matter where your eyes turn
You cannot ignore the truth
And so I'm asking you to stand with me
When will we stand and say enough is enough?
Open your eyes and take a
Stand instead of giving up
When will we stand and say enough is enough?
Open your eyes and take a
Stand instead of giving up
Who will stand up and make a difference?
(The future is in our hands)
We only have ourselves to blame
(The world is ours to change)
Who will stand up and make a difference?
(The future is in our hands)
We only have ourselves to blame
The world is ours to change
