On The Turning Away

[00:07.90] On the turning away

[00:12.41] From the pale and downtrodden

[00:17.41] And the words they say

[00:19.90] Which we won't understand

[00:23.65] "Don't accept that what's happening

[00:29.40] Is just a case of others' suffering

[00:34.41] Or you'll find that you're joining in

[00:38.16] The turning away"

[00:42.41] It's a sin that somehow

[00:47.41] Light is changing to shadow

[00:52.40] And casting it's shroud

[00:54.91] Over all we have known

[00:59.15] Unaware how the ranks have grown

[01:04.15] Driven on by a heart of stone

[01:09.15] We could find that we're all alone

[01:12.90] In the dream of the proud

[01:18.65] On the wings of the night

[01:22.90] As the daytime is stirring

[01:27.15] Where the speechless unite

[01:29.66] In a silent accord

[01:33.41] Using words you will find are strange

[01:38.90] And mesmerized as they light the flame

[01:43.66] Feel the new wind of change

[01:47.40] On the wings of the night

[02:37.15] No more turning away

[02:41.15] From the weak and the weary

[02:46.16] No more turning away

[02:48.65] From the coldness inside

[02:53.16] Just a world that we all must share

[02:58.15] It's not enough just to stand and stare

[03:02.91] Is it only a dream that there'll be

[03:06.16] No more turning away
