lyrics

What do I do I don’t know what to say?
The world is changing ‘round me every day
I’m strugglng with a sense that something’s wrong
All that I hold dear could soon be gone

We have eyes but still choose not to see
The desperate lives of those who cannot flee
They live on land not fit for you and I
In these places they will live and die

Chorus:
Where is my voice? I swear I’ll find it
The circle is broken, now we must bind it
Joining as one to end this violence
All our voices will end this silence

The Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, and the Jew
Are struggling to prove their faith is true
We all want to feed our family and friends
But do our actions justify the ends?

No prophet ever said to hate and kill
Or terrorize the innocent at will
Or take away from all of those who toil
Or make more right the ones who take the oil

Chorus:
Where is my voice? I swear I’ll find it
The circle is broken, now we must bind it
Joining as one to end this violence
All our voices will end this silence

You must resolve the conflict in your heart
If you are to find a place to start
You cannot be afraid of who you are
If there is doubt you will not get far

Final chorus:
Where is our voice? I swear we’ll find it
The circle is broken, now we must bind it
Joining as one to end this violence
All our voices will end this silence
