Old Lyrics I Found In My Documents

[these are old. bear with me if they suck]

LOVE146
(v1)Traveling to the corners of the earth
What do we hear?
The children are crying
But no one is listening
How can we hear what we ignore?

(ref)In her eyes was the strength to carry on
Staring back through the glass
Waiting for the cruelty
In her eyes there was a light
To give a purpose
146

(v2)Standing shoulder to shoulder with the predators
What do we see?
The children are dying
But no one is caring
How can we save what we won’t see?

(ref)In her eyes was the strength to carry on
Staring back through the glass
Waiting for the cruelty
In her eyes there was a light
To give a purpose
146

(v3)And could we even begin
To fix them now?
After what we did to them
All the hurt they’ve felt
We’ll never know if we don’t try

(ref)In her eyes was the strength to carry on
Staring back through the glass
Waiting for the cruelty
In her eyes there was a light
To give a purpose
146

(bridge)Love Protects
Love Defends
Love Restores
Love Empowers

(ref)In her eyes was the strength to carry on
Staring back through the glass
Waiting for the cruelty
In her eyes there was a light
To give a purpose
To inspire greatness
Like something we’ve never seen
Number 146

QUESTIONS
v1)I hate it more and more and more
The pressure building up inside me
Burning so intense I’m afraid of what could happen
What if I just let it all go?
What if I just pushed it all away?

(ref)Why can’t you all see what I see?
How did you become so blind?
When and where did it all go bad?
I can ask as many questions as I want
And still never get an answer.
But I’ll ask just once more
Is there any way to fix this?

(v2)I’m about to explode from holding back
Words rush to my mind
Insults, curses, accusations
But I bite my tongue and say nothing
Could I just let it go?
Could I just push it all away?

(ref)Why can’t you all see what I see?
How did you become so blind?
When and where did it all go bad?
I can ask as many questions as I want
And still never get an answer.
But I’ll ask just one more
Is there any way to fix this?

(v3)Why do you laugh and pretend
Like you never said the spiteful words?
You all insist upon holding on to such pointless anger
Why not hold on to the meaningful friendships?
If this doesn’t end soon…
I might just let it all go
I might just push it all away

(ref)Why can’t you all see what I see?
How did you become so blind?
When and where did it all go bad?
I can ask as many questions as I want
And still never get an answer.
But I’ll ask just one more
Is there any way to fix this?

(bridge)And if we could go back, would you try?
If we could lay it all bare, could you try?
I’d like to believe you wouldn’t hold onto your anger
Like so many petty children
But what I’d like to believe and what I know
Are two completely different things


(ref)Why can’t you all see what I see?
How did you become so blind?
When and where did it all go bad?
I can ask as many questions as I want
And still never get an answer.
But I’ll ask just one more
Is there any way to fix this?

(outro)Is there any way to fix this?
Is there any way to fix this?
Is there anyway to fix this?
Is there any way to fix this?
Is there even any way to try?
