On the turning away
From the pale and downtrodden
And words they say
Which we won't understand
"Dont accept that what's happening
Is just a case of other'suffering
Or you'll find that you're joining in
The turning away"
It's a sin that somehow
Light is changing to shadow
And casting it's shroud
Over all we have known
Unaware how the ranks have grown
Driven on by heart of stone
We could find that we're all alone
In the dream of the proud
On the wings of the night
As the daytime is stirring
Where the speechless unite
In a silent accord
Using words you will find us strange
And mesmerised as they light the flame
Feel the new wind of change
