In the cities and the towns
|
The word is coming down
|
No more doubt, no more pain
|
There's been a dragging of the chain
|
Now there's a price we gotta pay
|
No way out, no way round
|
|
Where is the town that we lived in, brother?
|
Where is the sound of the church bells, sister?
|
Now is the time to heal
|
|
You keep running from the wheel
|
But there? nothing left to feel
|
Empty heart down and out
|
Now the writer? can? explain
|
Why we?e playing up again
|
No way out, no way down
|
|
Where is the hope of a clean tomorrow?
|
Hope only offers when justice is coming
|
Now is the time to heal
|
|
Where is the ground, the beloved country?
|
Women and men who have fallen silent
|
Where are the words that can speak forgiveness?
|
Now is the time
|
Now is the time
|
Now is the time to heal
|
