Blind boy although you wish you could see I've often thought if you could be me Have eyes to see pictures of people in pain And it looks like I'll see them again, again Deaf man although you sure want to hear Would you turn your ears to shots that are near? Sounds of a city in near civil war And it seems like you'd hear it some more And here we sit now with nothing to do Just give out a song and hope it rings true To those not so deaf but lead us so blind May it soon be approaching their time, time
