The world has changed, more than some

There's darkness surrounding the sun

And you have given all you have

They've taken the best that you've done

 

Wake up, wake up, open your eyes

Your ears and your hands and your throats and your mouths

We are the more not the few

Thoughts are not facts and the news isn't news

 

The walls close in as each new day begins

Clouds linger all day

 

People come on

 

Words are words, whatever is said

People go back to your bed

But oh, my sweet-hearted world

Little streams, little hands, little smiles, little curls

 

Time for sleeping is past

Just give us a chance

 

People come on
