On the beach lies a boy
Thrown away like a toy
In the field lies a man left behind
He was calling, calling no one saw him die

Sitting there you're telling me
That everything is meant to be
But when I say I can't go on
I know I'm not the only one

I just can't live on planet hope
And watch the world go up in smoke
I don't know how to face the facts
When I see a child respond to impact

I want eyes
I want eyes
I want eyes
I want eyes

So I wake every night
With the same dream in mind
In a field there's a man left behind
He was calling, calling no one saw me cry
