Can you erase such deep emotion?
Should we extract the hand of peace?
Hide in shelters with blank faces
Fill the hole and lay the wreath
Do we belong in the same surroundings?
Fuelled by guilt and hate and greed
Does anybody have the answer?
Could someone please explain to me?
Some of all my fears
Sleep with one eye open
I, asking for forgiveness
Why, begging you for mercy
I, Oh Just what are you afraid of
To be oppressed, destroyed or cast aside
Surely only makes it worse
Ridicule exposes weakness
And reads like some satanic verse
It's easy just to show indifference
When deep down we all know its use
Strike a blow or strike a balance
Before they breed their h***** youth
Call a meeting of our spirits and drive a stake through our beliefs
Or tell them we don't care at all
I, Stand up and be counted
I, Stun me into silence
Why, sleep with one eye open
Oh just what are you afraid of
The sum of all my fears
Some of all my fears
Some of all my fears
Oh just what are you afraid of
I, Sleep with one eye open
I, asking for forgiveness
Why, begging you for mercy
I, just what are you afraid of
Why, begging you for mercy
I, just what are you afraid of
Should we extract the hand of peace?
Hide in shelters with blank faces
Fill the hole and lay the wreath
Do we belong in the same surroundings?
Fuelled by guilt and hate and greed
Does anybody have the answer?
