[Speaking Poetically] Open your eyes Close your ears Close your ears Open your eyes Listen to the words you see You are blind to what you hear Listen to the words you see Do not fear the truth beneath Reach for roots beneath the trees Listen to the words you seek Don't listen to a word they say Do NOT listen to a word you've heard Do not listen to a word you've heard People are people we live for our own Live how you think not by what you've been told I've been a fool Oh I've been a fool Walking the line with both of my eyes shut And I'm begging you, I'm begging you... Don't listen to a word you've heard, Don't listen to a word you've heard This world is full of strangers ohhh This world is full of 'hypocrites' Scratching for their winnings at least I am one to admit Born in a world relying on gold I've yet to find someone under control People are people and we live for our own Live how you think not by what you've been told And don't listen to a word you've heard Don't listen to a word you've heard Don't listen to a word you've heard Don't listen to a word you've heard The flag waves up above you, For liberty and freedom And fighting for your nation, Killing a wive's daughter's husband's son And you're told that you're being attacked by terrorist Invasions but over and over again It is you who points the gun Hey now, don't listen to a word you've heard Don't listen to a word you've heard Don't listen to a word you've heard Don't listen to a word you've heard. [Phil speaking] If you have the words inside yourself then Listen to the words you hear Listen to the words you say Listen to the words you say Listen to the words you say |
