Open up your eyes

Sometimes it's really hard to understand
What are all de people fightin' for?
Sometimes it doesn't make any sense
What are all de people dying for?
There is so much beautiful on this world
There is so much reason for happiness
There is so much that's worth living for
But some people couldn't care less

Open up your eyes!
See the birds and the trees and the rain and the sun
Open up your eyes!
See the girls and the boys and how life's goin' on
Open up your eyes!
See the love and the care in all peoples - far and near
Open up your eyes!
You only got one single life, doncha dedicate it to hate and fear

Sometimes it's really hard to understand
If we're all longing for the same, why can't we work together?
Sometimes this doesn't make any sense
We all know hate causes hate but we go on fighting and fighting
Though we all now about the beauty in the world
There are people who die just to cause pain to others
Though there is so much that is worth living for
People are blind and full of hate and full of fear

Open up your eyes!
See the birds and the trees and the rain and the sun
Open up your eyes!
See the girls and the boys and how life's goin' on
Open up your eyes!
See the love and the care in all peoples - far and near
Open up your eyes!
You only got one single life, doncha dedicate it to hate and fear

Why do we go on, killing our brothers?
Why do we go on, hurting our sisters?
Why do we go on, smashing the gifts of our parents?
Though we know it's no good?
Why do we go on, killing our brothers?
Why do we go on, hurting our sisters?
Why do we go on, smashing the gifts of our parents?
Though we know it's no good?
Why do we go on, killing our brothers?
Why do we go on, hurting our sisters?
Why do we go on, smashing the gifts of our parents?
Though we know it's no good?

Open up your eyes!
See the birds and the trees and the rain and the sun
Open up your eyes!
See the girls and the boys and how life's goin' on
Open up your eyes!
See the love and the care in all peoples - far and near
Open up your eyes!
You only got one single life, doncha dedicate it to hate and fear

Why do we go on, killing our sisters?
Why do we go on, hurting our brothers?
Why do we go on, smashing the gifts of our parents?
Though we know it's no good?
Why do we go on, hurting our sisters?
Why do we go on, killing our brothers?
Why do we go on, smashing the gifts of our parents?
Though we know it's no good?
Why do we go on
Why do we go on
Why do we go on
