Saw a number on the cover page
Seas, like thunder, roared and quaked
Many suffered, few were saved
Beneath the rubble, beneath the waves
I don't understand, i don't understand...
A thousand die, and that news goes by,
And i don't think twice, cause' it's not my life
A thousand die and i do not cry,
Though at times i've tried, it's a hopeless fight,
I've come to the conclusion...
I cannot change myself
Children hunger as famines rage
Rising numbers, everyday
So i wonder, can i change,
Feel something, not be okay?
A thousand die, and that news goes by,
And i don't think twice, cause' it's not my life
A thousand die and i do not cry,
Though at times i've tried, it's a hopeless fight,
I've come to the conclusion...
Maybe i should take a flight to see those desolate places
Maybe try to step inside the minds of all those desperate faces
Maybe my superficial eyes will finally be opened
And i will see them as you do
I want to see them as you do
God i need you to break through
And help me be love just like you
Could i be love just like you?
Could i be love just like you?
A thousand die, and that news goes by,
And i don't think twice, cause' it's not my life
A thousand die and i do not cry,
Though at times i've tried, it's a hopeless fight,
I've come to the conclusion...
