Who Will Answer?
3
Who Will Answer?
4
From the Canyons of the Mind
5
We wander on, and stumble blindly
6
Through the often tangled Maze
7
Of Starless Nights and Sunless Days
8
While asking for some kind of Clue
9
A Road to lead us to the Truth -
10
But... Who will Answer?
11
Side by side two People stand
12
Together vowing hand-in-hand
13
That Love's imbedded in their Hearts
14
But soon, an empty Feeling starts
15
To overwhelm their hollow Lives
16
And when they seek the Hows and Whys -
17
Who will Answer?
18
On a strange and distant Hill
19
A young man's lying very still
20
His Arms will never hold his Child
21
Because a Bullet running wild
22
Has struck him down, and now we cry:
23
"Dear God, oh why, oh why" -
24
Who will Answer?
25
High upon a lonely Ledge
26
A Figure teeters near the Edge
27
As jeering Crowds collect below
28
To egg him on with "Go, man Go"
29
But who will ask what led him
30
To his private Day of Doom -
31
And... Who will Answer?
32
CHORUS:
33
If the Soul is Darkened
34
By a Fear it cannot name
35
If the Mind is Baffled
36
When the Rules don't fit the Game
37
Who will Answer?, Who will Answer?, Who will Answer?
38
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
39
In the Rooms with darkened Shades
40
A Scent of Sandalwood pervades
41
The colored Thoughts in muddled Heads
42
Reclining on the unmade Beds
43
Of unmade Dreams that can't come true
44
When we ask what we should do -
45
Who will Answer?
46
Neath the spreading Mushroom Tree
47
The World revolves in Apathy
48
As overhead a Row of Specks
49
Roars on, drowned out by Discotheques
50
And if a Secret Button's pressed
51
Because one Man has been outguessed -
52
Who will Answer?
53
Is our Hope in Walnut Shells
54
Worn round the Neck; in Temple Bells
55
Or deep within some Cloistered Walls
56
Where hooded Figures pray and halt
57
In crumbled Books on dusty Shelves
58
Or in our Stars, or in Ourselves? -
59
Who will Answer?
60
CHORUS:
61
If the Soul is Darkened
62
By a Fear it cannot name
63
If the Mind is Baffled
64
When the Rules don't fit the Game
65
Who will Answer?, Who will Answer?, Who will Answer?
66
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
