Everon - In Silent Grace lyrics

Big sun, up in the sky You burn my skin And you hurt my eyes Big river, closing in upon us Our lives are swept away In your floods that rise The farmer lays the crop Down into deadly ground Growing our children's food One day I walked in a river bed A silent trace of waters that once flew One day I stood on a mountain top The world below was not the one I knew We dance and laugh out in the acid rain Are we travellers on a ship of fools ? Are we all blind Are we all blind or maybe We just don't want to see But want to trust that man on TV Who's saying everything's going to be alright Be alright for you and me We walk right on the edge of nowhere With our heads held high And obviously nobody cares They all walk on by As if they were not concerned at all You better look twice At each line in the papers You better look twice At that man on TV You better look twice Into the eyes of your leaders Or just look around See the dying world Don't you see it fade away In silent grace One day I walked in a river bed A silent trace of waters that once flew One day I stood on a mountain top The world below was not the one I knew We dance and laugh out in the acid rain Are we travellers on a ship of fools ? Are we all blind Are we all blind or maybe We just don't want to see But want to trust that man on TV Who's saying everything's going to be alright Be alright for you and me We walk right on the edge of nowhere With our heads held high And obviously nobody cares They all walk on by As if they were not concerned at all
