In the silence of the night, can you hear the cries? Can you feel
suffering?
In the eyes of young America, the tears begin to fall The
streets are filled with predators and broken hearts Shot down and left for
dead, so victimless crime Those satellites are watching everything
decline
Words have been spoken, promises broken Tears in the eyes of
the world Anger, frustration, mind manipulation Tears in the eyes of the
world
Can you feel the suffering? IF you have ears, let them hear; if
you have eyes, let them see Can you feel?
In your face another
tragedy, another waste of life Your sanity will push the image from your
mind Cut down in agony, this culture of death A trail of pain that takes
away your very breath
Dying traditions, selfish ambitions Tears in
the eyes of the world Anger, frustration, sheer desperation Tears in the
eyes of the world
There's no vision, there's no life Is there time to
get it right? Tears in the eyes of the world Will the sun refuse to
shine? Will the stars fall from the sky? Tears in the eyes of the
world
In the silence of the night, can you hear the cries? Tears in
the eyes of the world Can you feel the suffering, can you pay the
price? Tears in the eyes of the world
