:: Verse 1

Tell me...

Where have the gentle people gone?
What is so desirous about these wars?

Do you feel it?
The moment, it’s slipping away as we waste all our days

Are we too afraid to love again?
How much longer?
How many more days?
How much more should we wait?

These were my dreams
I’m watching them fade away
I’m looking through gray skies
Searching for a blue day

:: Chorus

Show me!
A crying world
I’ll show you my broken heart

Show me!
A reason to live
Before I lose it all

:: Verse 2

If you see my savior on the street
Tell him I’m disappointed

Where is the love he promised?
And will there be a place for the weak and weary?

Who will stand beside the humble ones tonight?

:: Chorus

Show me!
A crying world
I’ll show you my broken heart

Show me!
A reason to live
Before I lose it all

:: Bridge

My eyes
See right through your lying face

I know
Your heart is black as night

I’ve walked with you before

Time
Is all that separates us now

Your words are unnecessary

Where have the gentle people gone?
Where have the gentle people gone?
