Anybody Listening?

[00:35.04] You and I

[00:38.55] Long to live like the wind upon the water

[00:48.29] If we close our eyes, we'll maybe realize

[00:55.29] There's more to life than what we have known

[01:02.94] And I can't believe I've spent so long

[01:07.72] Living lies I knew were wrong inside

[01:12.64] I've just begun to see the light

[01:20.69] --

[01:48.33] Long ago there was a dream

[01:52.57] Had to make a choice or two

[01:55.66] Leaving all I loved behind

[02:00.02] For what nobody knew

[02:02.87] Stepped out on the stage, a life

[02:06.58] Under lights and judging eyes

[02:09.92] Now the applause has died and I

[02:14.60] Can dream again

[02:21.07] Is there anybody listening?

[02:28.59] Is there anyone that sees what's going on?

[02:35.61] Read between the lines

[02:38.50] Criticize the words they're selling

[02:42.37] Think for yourself and feel the walls

[02:47.31] Become sand beneath your feet

[02:50.94] --

[03:58.77] Feel the breeze?

[04:02.40] Time's so near you can almost taste the freedom

[04:09.05] There's a warm wind from the south

[04:13.34] Hoist the sail and we'll be gone

[04:16.48] By morning this will all seem like a dream

[04:23.23] And if I don't return to sing the song

[04:28.00] Maybe just as well

[04:29.86] I've seen the news and there's

[04:33.27] Not much I can do...alone

[04:44.37] --

[04:48.78] Is there anybody listening?

[04:55.82] Is there anyone who smiles without a mask?

[05:03.15] What's behind the words & images

[05:07.32] They know will please us?

[05:10.40] I'll take what's real. Bring up the lights

[05:17.86] Is there anybody listening?

[05:25.19] Is there anyone that sees what's going on?

[05:32.35] Read between the lines

[05:34.99] Criticize the words they're selling

[05:39.17] Think for yourself and feel the walls

[05:48.80] Become sand beneath your feet

[05:55.33] --

[06:23.94] Close your eyes

[06:30.92] --
