Can you hear them calling? Can you hear them crying out in hunger? If I could be strong Strong enough to face the lie within my life [PRE-CHORUS] I turn my head and run Running for tomorrow Can't face what I've done Can you hear me? Please forgive me! I cry [CHORUS] Miles away A million tears away Look them in their eyes Tell me, can you see the children suffering? And now our world is falling, falling apart Did we really take our chances? [PRE-CHORUS] [CHORUS x2] Follow the path 2000 years of wisdom We're still building castles in the sand Learn from the past The time is getting short now Oh Father, have mercy on me Can you hear me? Please forgive me! I cry [PRE-CHORUS] [CHORUS x2]
