I woke up 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
sad hearts they hide
thinking only
of themselves
They shun the light
they think they're right
living in their empty shells
Ooh
Can you see
their world is crashing
crashing down
around their feet
angry people
in the street
telling them
they've had their fill
of politics
that wound and kill
Grow the seeds
of evolution
Revolution never won
it's just another
form of gun
to do again
what they have done
with all our brothers'
youngest sons
Everywhere you go
you'll see them searching
everywhere you turn
you'll feel the pain
everyone is looking
for the answers
we'll look again
come on my friend
love will find them
in the end
Come on my friend
we've got to bend
on our knees
and say a prayer
Ooh
Can you feel
the world is pining
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
we're all children
children from a family tree
that's longer
than a centipede
started long ago
when you and I
were only love
I woke up 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
So many people
so many people
people lost
in a lost world
