Why don't we get some answers,
Stop messin' around with our lives?
We hear the same old story, where's the glory?
It's our lives, it's our lives!
Changes are vital, do we care?
It's taken far too long - maybe we're there?
Start walkin' with our time, if you dare
There is a rightness, yes, everywhere
Why don't we, why don't we,
Open our eyes?
Why don't we, why don't we,
Change our minds?

Honest and sweet surrender -
Never wanted this illusion
In our lives
Trials and tribulations,
Familiar conversations,
In our lives, in our lives
Competing against everyone,
A trap, that, and a snare
Return to nature, no solution, so beware!

How can it be this way?
Shouldn't be so
Surviving day after day,
Unwilling to let go

Why don't we, why don't we,
Share this time?
Why don't we, why don't we,
Open our eyes?

Livin' with a global village,
Aware of the unexpected
In our lives
Transforming greed and pillage,
Not to be rejected -
It's our lives, it's our lives!

Changes are vital, do we care?
It's taken far too long - maybe we're there?
Stop workin' with our time, if you dare
There is a rightness, yes, everywhere

Why don't we, why don't we,
Open our eyes?
Why don't we, why don't we,
Share this time?
Why don't we, why don't we,
Change their minds?
Why don't we, why don't we,
Share our lives?
