A little one that’s full of innocence He doesn’t know that something’s out of place Another one dreams murder all night He’s been living full of hatred all his life
Well, I guess it’s always been this way A world that’s full of love and hate Oh God, but will it stay this way? So much love, so much hate
It goes on and on and on around and again
A mother is willing to give her life While another one throws away her child A son stands and he turns the other cheek While another one spits in a face while it bleeds
This evil that’s within is hiding in our skin What are we? When will we? Why are we still wondering?
Oh Jesus, I can’t take the hate anymore Save us from ourselves before We go on and on and on around and again
What is all this? The question I am asking It’s not what is I feel like I was promised
This hurts, this leaves a lasting laceration I can’t believe that this is what my faith was for
The scars remain, reminds of pain The scars remain
When I see You, I see scars that are matching When I see You, I see scars that are matching I know what I’m feeling You are feeling scars remaining through When I see You, I see scars
My feet will sink in this quicksand around me Unless Something or Someone comes to save me
It′s just a matter of time a few days ago I saw you, you were fine Remembering what you said About the book you read The one I got you The Beginning of the End Oh how we′d talk For hours upon end What I give Just to do it again But you′re lying there In this hospital bed Won′t you open you eyes And let′s talk once again
(CHORUS) If you fly away tonight I want to tell you that I love you I hope that you can hear me I hope that you can feel me If you fly away tonight I want to tell you that I′m sorry That I never told you When we were face to face
Well I′ve been here all night And I′m watching you Breathe in and breathe out Is it really you Or just a machine That′s giving you life And it′s making seem That there could be hope I could say to your face If it weren′t for you That there would be no grace That′s covered my life You took the time To speak into my mind And my heart Words of life
(CHORUS)
So goodbye for now And I′ll see you again Some way, somehow When it′s my turn To go to the other side I′ll hold you again And melt at your smile Now all I have Are the ones that I′m with And you taught me not To take for granted The time that we have To show that we care Speak into their minds And their hearts While their here And say I love you
