Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Their cries are blown away with the wind
How passive can we be before humanity is lost?
Turning our backs on those who need love
We must not rest while healing is needed
[Verse 2]
Tear down the veil
That bars your heart from feeling this
Dedicate yourself
Give your souls to compassion
[Verse 3]
With open arms embrace this heart
With open eyes behold the truth
Embrace this life
[Verse 4]
So little time is left
We must be relentless
In our pursuit of those in torment
[Verse 5]
Tear down the veil (Tear down the veil)
That bars your heart from feeling this
Dedicate yourself (Dedicate yourself)
Become the voice of compassion
[Verse 6]
With open arms embrace this heart
With open eyes behold the truth
Embrace this life
[Verse 7]
Can you reject yourself?
Can you feel their agony?
In a world that feeds on disregard
Heal the broken hearted
