WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES



WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES



A girl stands all alone
a lost soul where is home
a boy lays crying leave them alone
all hands tied we watch stones thrown



we are not the only ones crying
we are not the only ones dieing
they are not the only ones ears shut down
you are not the only one denying



a woman dreams I need real love
a man dreams what is love
a child needs nothing more than love
the world sees crimes of so called love



we are not the only ones crying
we are not the only ones dieing
they are not the only ones eyes shut down
you are not the only one in blinding



what will it take to bring power stronger than what we see
what will it take to break the silence under covers of old creeds



we are not the only ones in hiding
we are not the only ones stuck trying
they are not the only ones broken down
you are not the only one of turned blind eye



where is the people power
to break this down
this has gone beyond redemption
unless we break this down



we are not the only ones crying
we are not the only ones hands all bound
they are not the only ones ears shut down
you are not the only one denying
we are not the only ones
we are not the only ones
we are not the only ones
