What's in a Word

歌詞

Oh yes, it's hard, it's getting harder To turn the cheek or just walk away When all I see is degradation day after day (Day after day after day after day after day) I wanna fight, my hands are tied My weapons are pitiful And all that's left, one troubled mind One timid voice Such a desperate noise (What's in a word) More than you imagine (What's in a word) More than I can say (Once in a while) You can hear such sweet sounds Freedom's singing in your head, in your head And while I slide down into darkness You stand so proud, so proud in the light Oh, help me, please, I think I'm falling Between wrong and right Why give me strength then speak at length Of wisdom and tenderness (Tenderness) So much to learn, so much to lose I've asked it before, oh, tell me once more (What's in a word) More than you imagine (What's in a word) More than I can say (Once in a while) You can hear such sweet sounds Chimes of freedom in your head Yes, I have heard there's a new age dawning And I have heard that the die is cast I know the word can be "liberation" For a people free at last, free at last Some give a damn, some give their lives Why can't we give peace a chance (Give peace a chance) Put down that gun, a battle won without even a shot Oh, a dreamer I'm not (What's in a word) More than you imagine (What's in a word) More than I can say (Once in a while) You can hear such sweet sounds Freedom's singing in your head Yes, I have heard there's a new age dawning And I have heard that the die is cast I know the word can be "liberation" For a people, free at last What's in a word, woh oh (What's in a word) (What's in a word, liberation) I can hear such sweet sound singing in you head Free at last
