violence
i open my eyes to violence so i close them
but it wont make it go away
how do you stop this violence
with more violence you say

violence isnt the only way
maybe youll find that out some day
but untill that day comes
this is how my eyes will stay

there is an answer
but youre to lazy to look
war isnt the answer
but its the road you took

involving others to settle your desputes
what a coward would do
you say he speaks lies
but is yours the truth?

violence isnt the only way
maybe youll find that out some day
but untill that day comes
this is how my eyes will stay

you have so much to fix here
yet you try to fix whats not broken there
our education dying
but you dont seem to care

so you ask me why i close my eyes
why dont you open yours first
lost in the desert with water right under your nose
but yet you're still dying of thirst

violence isnt the only way
maybe youll find that out some day
but untill that day comes
this is how my eyes will stay
