Who Will Answer Lyrics
(Chanted, with increasing melody) From the canyons of the mind, We wander
on and stumble blindly Through the often-tangled maze Of starless nights
and sunless days, While casting for some kind of clue Or road to lead us
to the truth, But who will answer?
Side by side two people
stand, Together vowing, hand-in-hand That love's imbedded in their
hearts, But soon an empty feeling starts To overwhelm their hollow
lives, And when we seek the hows and whys, Who will answer?
High
upon a lonely ledge, a figure teeters near the edge, And jeering crowds
collect below To egg him on with, "Go, man, go!" And who will ask what
led him To his private day of doom, And who will answer?
On a
strange and distant hill, A young man's lying very still. His arms will
never hold his child, Because a bullet running wild Has cut him down. And
now we cry, "Dear God, Oh, why, oh, why?" And who will
answer?
(Full melody the rest of the song)
If the soul is
darkened by a fear it cannot name, If the mind is baffled when the rules
don't fit the game, Who will answer? Who will answer? Who will
answer?
In the rooms of dark and shades, The scent of sandalwood
pervades. The colored thoughts in muddled heads Reclining in rumpled
beds Of unmade dreams that can't come true, And when we ask what we
should do, Who? Who will answer?
'Neath the spreading mushroom
tree, The world revolves in apathy As overhead, a row of specks Roars
on, drowned out by discotheques, And if a secret button's pressed Because
one man has been outguessed, Who will answer?
Is our hope in walnut
shells Worn 'round the neck with temple bells, Or deep within some
cloistered walls Where hooded figures pray in halls? Or crumbled books on
dusty shelves, Or in our stars, or in ourselves, Who will
answer?
If the soul is darkened By a fear it cannot name, If the
mind is baffled When the rules don't fit the game, Who will answer? Who
will answer? Who will answer? Alleluiah! Alleluiah! Alleluiah!
