I couldn't take it lying down
Enough's enough, I'll stand my ground
Greed and envy at the corner of every street
I'll raise my hand, and speak my peace
One world one lover
One day people will discover
One more reason, one more try
Don't say good-bye
I couldn't face the world
If I couldn't change my mind
The lines are bound
The wounds are deep
And Mother Earth can only weep
Her cries for mercy have fallen short
So raise your aim, give it some thought
One world one lover
One day people will discover
One more reason, one more try
Don't say good-bye
I couldn't face the world
If I couldn't change my mind
And like the past, that day will come
When our hands at last become
A force for reason with reasonable thoughts
We'll raise our hands, and change the course
One world one lover
One day people will discover
One more reason, one more try
Don't say good-bye
I couldn't face the world
If I couldn't change my mind
What can be done
Or must I dream
Or heed the call of the machines
Machines
