I won`t close my eyes
|
To the sufferers plight.
|
In a world full of darkness
|
I won`t turn off my light.
|
|
Our cries for justice are shots in the dark
|
But our strength`s in our bite
|
And not in our bark
|
It`s time to stand
|
And shout it out loud
|
And the louder we scream
|
The sweeter the sound.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
I won`t close my eyes
|
When I know that I`m right
|
When I`m drowning in tears
|
I won`t turn off my light.
|
|
|
We`re shown no respect
|
But that can`t break our pride,
|
When our backs to the wall
|
We won`t run and we won`t hide
|
It`s time to stand, face the oncoming crowd
|
because the louder we scream
|
The sweeter the sound.
|
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
I wont`t close my eyes
|
When the future don`t look bright
|
Though the road seems too long
|
I won`t turn off my light
|
In a world full of darkness,
|
I won`t turn off my light
|
