Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Sticks and stones Battle zones A single light bulb On a single thread for the black Sirens wail History fails Rose-colored glass Begins to age and crack While the politicians shadowbox The power ring In an endless split decision Never solve anything From a neighbor's distant land I heard the strain of the common man [Chorus] Let it be me (this is not a fighting song) Let it be me (not a wrong for a wrong) Let it be me If the world is night Shine my life like a light Well the world seems spent And the president Has no good idea Of who the masses are Well I'm one of them And I'm among friends We're trying to see beyond The fences in our own backyards I've seen the kingdoms blow Like ashes in the winds of change But the power of truth Is the fuel for the flame So the darker the ages get There's a stronger beacon yet [Chorus] In the kind word you speak In the turn of the cheek When your vision stays clear In the face of your fear Then you see turning out a light switch Is their only power When we stand like spotlights In a mighty tower All for one and one for all Then we sing the common call [Chorus]
