Lyrics
Look In
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.
Just another voice in the wilderness
Just another cry for peace
Just another voice full of loneliness
Just another prayer for release
Look up, look out
Look in, look all about
Look everywhere but look at yourself
Hold on, hold up
Hold out, hang in
Please everyone, but please yourself
And try to make the world a better loving, living peaceful place
There’s too many fat, there’s too many thin
There’s too many outside trying to get in
There’s too many trapped
There’s too many pinned
There’s too many winters that should have been springs, now
Get in, get up
Get it out, get it on
Get everything you can for free
Look in, look up
Look out, look back
Look everywhere, but don’t look for me
And try to make the world a better loving, living peaceful place
Please
It’s nothing but a look in a two-way mirror
It’s just another cow in the corn
It’s just another gift for the indian giver
It’s just another blow on the horn
Look in, look out
Look up, look down
Look everywhere, but don’t look for me
Get it in, get it up
Get it out, get it on
Get everything you can for free
And make the world a better loving, living, giving peaceful place
