WAKING UP TO DRY LAND

WITH EMPTY GLASSES IN THEIR HANDS

TO THE BONE I HEAR A CALL

A FATE FOR ONE AND ALL

WATCH RELIEF FALL FROM THE SKY

STILL RESOURCES RUNNING RY

CHORUS

TELL ME HOW CAN WE EASE THE PAIN

THAT THE PEOPLE GOING UNDER

TELL ME, HOW CAN WE EASE THE PAIN

TELL ME WHO'S GONNA TAKE THE BLAME

I WATCHED THE CHILDREN CRY

NO TEARS WITHIN THEIR EYES

THEN I ASK THE REASON WHY

LIFE SEEMS TO BE ON THE SLIDE

ELECTING ONE WITH NO FEELINGS

WHO'S CLOSING THE DOORS ON THEIR TOMORROW

CHORUS

TELL ME HOW CAN WE EASE THE PAIN

THAT THE PEOPLE GOING UNDER

TELL ME, HOW CAN WE EASE THE PAIN

TELL ME WHO'S GONNA TAKE THE BLAME

COS IT'S BEEN SO LONG

AND IT SEEMS TO ME TO BE SO WRONG

LIFE IT'S LIKE A BALL AGAINST THE WALL

IF YOU THROW LOVE AGAINST THE WALL

IT COMES BACK TO YOU

THROW HATE AGAINST THE WALL

IT'S GONNA FOLLOW YOU TOO

CHORUS

TELL ME HOW CAN WE EASE THE PAIN

THAT THE PEOPLE GOING UNDER

TELL ME, HOW CAN WE EASE THE PAIN

TELL ME WHO'S GONNA TAKE THE BLAME
