Tell me have we learned

From the pastfrom the past

Why do we see hurt

Then turn our backsturn our backs



Is there any hope

A thousand words can't say

Politicians choke

While we stand off

Believing it's okay



How can we reach inside our hearts

Inside our hearts today

How can we build on what we've got

Not throw it all away



Will our children run

Like we dolike we do

It's alright for some

What a life me and you

Oblivious we stay

Looking for ourselvesif that's ok

With our conscience clear

It makes you wonder what we're doing here



How can we reach inside our hearts

Inside our hearts today

How can we build on what

We've gotnot throw it all away
