OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE
Its time to let go, Of that past, The one so sad .
Its time to stand tall, And breathe, In the air .
Air that’s so pure, It keeps us alive .
Breathe it deep, Take it in, Remember .
How did it all begin, And the friend from within .
We can’t give you our world as a perfect place .
We can give you hope, There’s a better place .
End the suffering, Here and now, For all .
No more abuse, Stop it now .
For that friend in need, Be that friend indeed .
Never forget, Your not alone .
Be seen, Be heard, Let the world know .
No more suffering, No more pain .
No more fear, Or silent tears .
Open you eyes and see , Don’t turn away .
Help Stop it, End it now, Speak out, Lend that hand .
Listen to the cry’s, Of abuse today .
Be the one, To stop it right here, And now.
No more abuse…
