Lyrics
My Eyes Open
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Give me silence
Give me peace
Give me courage
Give me strength
I feel so helpless
Like a little child
From the pain of the city
There's no where to hide
You can shout and holler
As much as you'd like
You can raise the roof
But it ain't no use.
All this bloodshed,
All this bloodshed
Will it ever end,
Will it ever end.
Sweet star of truth
I turn to you
In all this bloodshed
Sweet star of truth
I turn to you
I'm looking for answers
Where answers can't be found
And there are no answers
Down here on the ground
Sweet star of truth
I turn to you
Sweet star of truth.
