Take a Stand

starin out the window
caught inside a dream
ignorance is blissful
mean and quite serene

cuz i chose to ignore
the suffereing abroad
does'nt mean its not happenin
just means to turn it off

if i can stop
all the pain
of the lives that
are being lost

and i pray
we refrain
from winning
at any cost

we need peace right now
we need love somehow
the world is not full of clouds
let the sun shine down

just get up off the ground and...
take a stand (right now)
take a stand (right now)
take my hand (right now)
and take a stand

just get up off the ground and... yeah

Watchin through the Tv-ee-ee
Listen to the radio-oo-oo
dont like what it is i see
but i can not let it go-oo-oo

watchin all the lives we've lost
wonderin who's right
guess it doesnt matter now
i still cant stop the fight

if i could see
a different chance
to do the right
or make a difference
i would lay
down my life
just to give the world
one more chance

we need peace (right now)
we need love somehow
the world is not full of clouds
let the sun shine down

just get up off the ground and...
take a stand (right now)
take a stand (right now)
take my hand (right now)
and take a stand

just get up off the ground and... yeah

we need peace (right now)

we need peace (right now)
we need love somehow
the world is not full of clouds
let the sun shine down

just get up off the ground and...
take a stand (right now)
take a stand (right now)
take my hand (right now)
and take a stand

just get up off the ground and... yeah
