Lyrics
10000 Children
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.
10,000 children and all I can do is just talk.
While my house is full of possessions that negligence bought.
Everyone tells me that I'm not to blame,
Why do I still feel the same?
Only love can save us all.
Only love can save us all, save us all.
10,000 children are my invitation to change.
To continue in excess now suddenly feels oh so strange.
Prayers and money should not be confused,
But I pray that both still are used.
Only love can save us all.
Only love can save us all
What will become of me?
Inside of history
10,000 children and all I can do is just talk.
