Aeone - Voice Of America lyrics
rate meA man on the radio wakes me from sleep<br />
I've tried not to listen, but my conscience is weak<br />
I've come up for air, 'cause I really can't breathe<br />
Sometimes I think that he's talking to me...<br />
<br />
The voice of America<br />
The call of a stranger reach in to me<br />
The cry of a soldier<br />
The sound of a mother<br />
Makes my heart weep...<br />
<br />
I come home at night and turn on the tv<br />
And the face of a woman stares out from the screen<br />
I try not to look, but the truth still remains<br />
Her eyes speak the words that embody my pain...<br />
<br />
The voice of America<br />
The call of a stranger reach in to me<br />
The cry of a soldier<br />
The sound of a mother<br />
Makes my heart weep...<br />
<br />
So I drove to the ocean<br />
And lay down on the sand<br />
To commune with the silence, the waves and the land<br />
But someone was shouting to me<br />
From the hollows below the ground...<br />
<br />
It's the cry of a man on the street<br />
It's a mother, it's a soldier, it's a priest<br />
It's a boy in a gang with a gun<br />
It's a voice and it's coming from everyone<br />
It's the tears of a child<br />
And the sound of a woman who can't speak<br />
It's the old people talking about the young girls<br />
Laughing at the young boys playing on the beach<br />
It's your lover's voice and the kid that you can never teach<br />
The brother you can't reach<br />
It touches you and all that you can never see<br />
It's the choir boy's song and the man who's never coming home<br />
It's a drum, it's a nun<br />
We are one single voice<br />
Make the choice and rejoice<br />
With the voice of America!<br />
<br />
The voice of America<br />
The call of a stranger reach in to me<br />
The cry of a soldier<br />
The sound of a mother<br />
Makes my heart weep...<br />
<br />
(We all connect at the heart of it<br />
We all play our own part in it<br />
You are never alone you know<br />
You are finally coming home...)<br />
<br />
The voice of America<br />
The call of a stranger reach in to me<br />
The cry of a soldier<br />
The sound of a mother<br />
Makes my heart weep...
