Lyrics

I see the rifles coming over the hill
And if you shout, maybe they stop and won't kill
But if you think like me
You'll be as dead as he
I see the lion crawling over your bed
And if you stay, he'll make you walk in your bed
To what you're gonna be
It never lets you be
I see the color in your eyes
I see the images I own
I see more color in your eyes
Than the reflections from purple skies
I won't let you take him away
And I won't give to you the fires of hate
So I will never see
What you've done to me
I see the color in your eyes
I see the images I own
I see more color in your eyes
Than the reflections from purple skies
Now
You come alive
With the world at your side
Now
You come alive
With the world at your side
I see the rifles coming over the hill
And if you shout, maybe they stop and won't kill
But if you think like me
You'll be as dead as he
Some day
I see the color in your eyes
I see the images I own
I see more color in your eyes
Than the reflections from purple skies
Now
You come alive
With the world at your side
Now
You come alive
With the world at your side
