Give me silence
Give me peace
Give me courage
Give me strength

I feel so helpless
Like a little child
From the pain of the city
There's no where to hide
You can shout and holler
As much as you'd like
You can raise the roof
But it ain't no use

All this bloodshed
All this bloodshed
Will it ever end
Will it ever end

Sweet star of truth
I turn to you
In all this bloodshed

Sweet star of truth
I turn to you

I'm looking for answers
Where answers can't be found
And there are no answers
Down here on the ground

Sweet star of truth
I turn to you
Sweet star of truth
