Catch the rain empty hands Save the children from their lands Wash the darkness from their skin Heroes from the west We don't know you, we know best This is not a test
You treat me like I'm blind Setting fires around houses on the hill But light gives heat You segregate my mind Burning crosses from your fears The light gives heat
It's not the way to light their way Boys in holes in empty fields Oh, how good it feels Lower-class, and understate Empty promise, empty plate
You treat me like I'm blind Setting fires around houses on the hill Light gives heat You segregate my mind Burning crosses from your fears, your fears But light gives heat, gives heat
You treat me like I'm blind Setting fires around houses on the hill Light gives heat You segregate my mind Burning crosses from your fears But light gives heat
Will you teach us how to love? To see the things you see Walk the road you walked Feel the pain that you feel At your feet I kneel, I want to see you shine See your light not mine 'Cause light gives heat Your light gives heat
