ANACRUSIS - A WORLD TO GAIN lyrics

[Lyrics by K. Nardi]

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
