[Intro] Im breathing with a sinking earth Gasping for breath feeling hurt Showing my rage as I turn the pages Reading the words and between the spaces [Verse 1] Could it be, could it only be The love weve lost was all we got Tell me the earth turns for the worst Ill tell your words are blind and cursed Im waiting for the world to change [Verse 2] Turn around, change the way We breed ignoration of beauty and creation A non stop battle with life in the saddle Could it be, could it only be The things that have been left to bleed [Verse 3] Tell me now with all honesty This precious world of yours is free And if you see me staring You know that Im not here Im searching for reasons to overcome the fear [Chorus] Theyre here, theyre here, around me He stands, he stands, beside me Could it be could it only be Competing with the loud demands See the sights and hear the sounds [Verse 4] Of desperation of war and creation The earth must cost and now were faking Could it be, could it only be Chances slip through our fingertips Tell me the earth turns for the worse Ill tell your words are not the first [Chorus] Theyre here, theyre here, around me He stands, he stands, beside me Could it be could it only be Competing with the loud demands See the sights and hear the sounds
