can't look away - jimi jamison lyrics
see the child, dresses in rags in the street,
cold and homeless,
too weak to ask for just one scr-p of food to survive,
war, torn lives, shed their innocent blood,
on the pavement,
as we all shake our heads from our ivory towers,
making righteous remarks as we’re wasting the hours.
i hate what i see but i can’t look away,
from the trainwreck we watch,
from our armchairs each day,
are we powerless p-wns in the games people play,
i try and blind myself to the pain,
but i can’t, no i can’t look away.
kids in school, learning lessons in life,
love and laughter,
such precious jewels, with a future so bright,
dreams so tall,
an aimless soul, open fire, roots the world,
as we wonder what force could have turned him so wild,
he was quiet, he was shy,
he was somebody’s child.
i hate what i see but i can’t look away,
from the trainwreck we watch,
from our armchairs each day,
are we powerless p-wns in the games people play,
i try and blind myself to the pain,
disconnect my heart from my brain,
but i can’t, no i can’t look away.
we can’t stand idly by,
no we can’t look away,
and let one more child die, no!
as we all shake our heads from our ivory towers,
making righteous remarks as we’re wasting the hours.
i hate what i see but i can’t look away,
from the trainwreck we watch,
from our armchairs each day,
are we powerless p-wns in the games people play,
i try and blind myself to the pain,
disconnect my heart from my brain,
if we’re gonna change a world gone insane,
we just can’t, no we can’t, no i can’t look away.
