Tekst piosenki
Once I saw a promised land Wrapped in many shades of green But I sat and watched the world go by Confused by all the things I've seen Should I stand up, say what's on my mind Point a finger at the wrong I find Let it linger till another time Or let it go ? I've seen forests turn to fields of sand To satisfy a rich man's greed Now the tears that fall upon this land Won't help to grow a nation's needs Should I shout out from the highest tower Should I take it to the highest power Show the plague that turns the whole world sour Or let it go ? I seek comfort in a sea of fools And wrap their lies around for protection But if lies were any answer at all We're just adding to this world infection Can I turn and smile and kiss it away ? Leave it lying for another day Should I fall down on my knees and pray Or let it go ? There's a passion that destroys all the caring And walks across the flowers of affection Breaks them down into the soil we are sharing And leaves us with this life of rejection Am I strong enough to stand my ground ? Lift my head and show the strength I've found Try to keep from hell or heaven bound Or let it go ? Don't let it go ! Should I shout out from the highest tower Should I take it to the highest power Show the plague that turns the whole world sour Or let it go ? Can I turn and smile and kiss it away ? Leave it lying for another day Should I fall down on my knees and pray Or let it go ? Should I stand up say what's on my mind Point a finger at the wrong I find Let it linger till another time Or let it go ?
