|
I've kept it inside much to long |
|
There's no relief |
|
Carry it around just like a stone |
|
Too heavy for me |
|
I had paid the price |
|
Of standing on the outside looking in |
|
It's time to let the healing begin |
|
A boy is strung out he's going through hell |
|
His mother weeps |
|
His spirit is broken and there's nothing left |
|
Just a terrible need |
|
And the days are marked by the heaviness of the heart |
|
It never mends |
|
Until the healing begins |
|
And the tension prowls the streets like and animal |
|
The people stay behind their locks and chains |
|
It's a shame when so many are trying their best to live as one |
|
And the smoke form the fires covers up the sun |
|
A young girl is lying in the dirt her dreams ended there |
|
Caught in the crossfire on somebody's turf hatred in the air |
|
It's a voice that never sings, a winter without the spring |
|
It never ends |
|
It's time to let the healing begin, okay |
|
It's time to let the healing begin, oh babe |
|
I won't let the healing come down |
|
[Incomprehensible] |
|
Let the healing begin |
|
Let those broken hearts [Incomprehensible] |
|
As time [Incomprehensible] |
