Stephen Stills - We are Not Helpless Lyrics
We are not helpless, we are menWhat lies between usIt can be set aside and endedEv'ryday we learn more how to hateShut the doorAnd then we tell ourselves we can't relateOnly to the ones who are the sameYet even they are diff'rentAnd ever so they shall remainAll are strangers, all are friendsAll are brothers, brothersOpen up, my friend, and learn to hearFor even lyingWhen it has nothing you should fearIf you cannot let yourself be knownBy anyoneThen you are hiding and not wholeAll are strangers, all are friendsAll are brothers, brothersWe, your children, we would ask you allPlease do not hide your eyesAnd listen when we callWe will whisper, shout or make a sceneWe are the answerFor we can live the peace we dreamAll are strangers, all are friendsAll are brothers, oh yeah, oh yeahYes, America's childrenAre askin' ev'rybody some questions about how it isYes, America's childrenAre makin' it hard to look them in the eyesAmerica's childrenAre makin' it hard to live lies, you know, whoa, it isAnd America's childrenAre diggin' that ev'rywhere childrenAre diggin' we live on the earthWe live on the earth, we live on the earth right nowYes, and it's right on, children of the earth, and it's right onChildren of the earth, and it's right onChildren of the earth and it's right on, right on, yeahThis is what has made our nation freeFor life is changeAnd only blind men cannot seeThe new order is upon us nowIt is the childrenThey have the wisdom to be freeAll are strangers, all are friendsAll are brothers
