Searching to find an easy way out People afraid to speak up, afraid to doubt Afraid to open their eyes for fear they might find What the problem's about...is us As long as we keep running away There is no hope, nothing will change The problems at hand are the ones we must face We've got nothing to lose And a world to gain Starving inside the hunger of one Willing to help do, this, what must be done We're wasting our time Searching for ways to escape There will be nowhere to run From ourselves, now As long as we keep running away There is no hope, nothing will change The problems at hand are the ones we must face We've got nothing to lose And a world to gain Far too real, worse than a lie You couldn't face, the truth inside One heart lonely and small To carry the weight of the world If you and I could take it upon ourselves To open our eyes to what it could be We'd be free As long as we keep running away There is no hope, nothing will change The problems at hand are the ones we must face We've got nothing to lose And a world to gain A dangerous faith, it's silence that kills It's eating at me, I'm haunted still
