Why don't we get some answers,
|
Stop messin' around with our lives?
|
We hear the same old story, where's the glory?
|
It's our lives, it's our lives!
|
Changes are vital, do we care?
|
It's taken far too long - maybe we're there?
|
Start walkin' with our time, if you dare.
|
There is a rightness, yes, everywhere.
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Open our eyes?
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Change our minds?
|
|
Honest and sweet surrender -
|
Never wanted this illusion
|
In our lives.
|
Trials and tribulations,
|
Familiar conversations,
|
In our lives, in our lives.
|
Competing against everyone,
|
A trap, that, and a snare.
|
Return to nature, no solution, so beware!
|
|
How can it be this way?
|
Shouldn't be so.
|
Surviving day after day,
|
Unwilling to let go.
|
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Share this time?
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Open our eyes?
|
|
Livin' with a global village,
|
Aware of the unexpected
|
In our lives.
|
Transforming greed and pillage,
|
Not to be rejected -
|
It's our lives, it's our lives!
|
|
Changes are vital, do we care?
|
It's taken far too long - maybe we're there?
|
Stop workin' with our time, if you dare.
|
There is a rightness, yes, everywhere.
|
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Open our eyes?
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Share this time?
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Change their minds?
|
Why don't we, why don't we,
|
Share our lives?
