Lyrics
They see us all (see us as)
An easy target, wake up
It's much harder to hit and wound us than you may think, oh no
We won't play scapegoat (play scapegoat)
For your evil doings this time
In your sea of guiltiness, lord you will sink
Then maybe we won't
Feel the tension everywhere
Strong the tension in the air
Feel the tension everywhere
No more tension anywhere, no
Will they ever learn (ever learn)
That the fire they play with burns
And if they're not careful they may be the ones who get hurt
It's such a thin line (that they walk)
And if they're not careful they'll fall off
Because it is death with which they flirt
Then surely they shall
Feel the tension everywhere
Strong the tension in the air
Feel the tension everywhere
No more tension anywhere
Anywhere, any, anywhere, anywhere, anywhere
How can we learn from another culture
When we're too stubborn and won't open our eyes
Hypocrisy saying we're open minded
Refuse to see, instead choose to be self-blinded
Feel the tension everywhere
Strong the tension in the air
Feel the tension everywhere
No more tension anywhere
Feel the tension everywhere
Strong the tension in the air
Feel the tension everywhere
No more tension anywhere
