1
These are dangerous times
2
that were living in
3
and there are dangerous signs
4
that were giving in to fear
5
late one night, I'm lying here
6
I thought I heard a sound.
7
Tell the mothers and the babes
8
tell the old, tell the sick they will be safe
9
get the young males. Tell them to be brave
10
I was so concerned with saving live
11
I never saw you pull the knife.
12
High on the mountains
13
across seven seas
14
All of the people
15
why me, why me?
16
Do you feel so frustrated
17
Frightened and feared
18
answer my question
19
Why me, why me, why me
20
why me, why me, why me?
21
You're such an angry young man
22
with all your grievances
23
people don't understand,
24
they just can't understand
25
what you must do to stay alive.
26
So you try to justify
27
all the violence and hate, before your eyes.
28
Through the ages better men than you have tried
29
to give what is not theirs to give
30
to take the land where others live.
31
High on the mountains
32
across seven seas
33
all of the people why me, why me?
34
Do you feel so frustrated
35
frightened and feared
36
answer my question
37
why here, why now,
38
why here, why now, hey here,
39
why now, why me?
40
Oh, for now you have the power
41
the guns and all the swords
42
but nature has a nasty habit
43
of balancing her flaws.
44
Now you may try to break my body
45
lock me up and throw away the key
46
but you'll never break my spirit
47
I'm free!
