Common Children Dual Lens lyrics

Prisoner to the chains of time
Life just seems to slip away
Guided by the eyes of the blind
In time it darkens the day

I open my eyes to the dawn
The whole world is on fire
In my turning all is burning
Unanswered questions cry

Would we know to sing?
Would we know to fly?
And if we could, yes, if we could
Would we even try?

We could see forever
If we open our eyes

Dreams of a past unknown

Struggling in a world of pain
To see the colors of the rainbow
To be free from these chains

I see the fire in the sky
Held within the hands of the son
I see love within your eyes
The fire has made us one

Would we know to sing?
Would we know to fly?
And if we could, yes, if we could
Would we even try?

We could see forever
If we open our eyes
