From the recording TAKE A GOOD LOOK
Lyrics
Take a good look around you,<br />
Stare straight into the setting sun.<br />
In the shadows that surround you,<br />
Catch a glimpse of all you’ve done.<br />
A glimpse of all you’ve done.<br />
<br />
Won’t you listen, my sisters and brothers,<br />
To a secret shared by elves?<br />
When we close our eyes to others,<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
<br />
Get down off your high horse,<br />
And take a good look around.<br />
You’re not shooting up some golf course;<br />
You’re standing on sacred ground.<br />
Standing on sacred ground.<br />
<br />
Won’t you listen, my sisters and brothers,<br />
To a secret shared by elves?<br />
When we close our eyes to others,<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
<br />
Fame and fortune may have found you,<br />
Through all your life’s fits and turns.<br />
Now, take a good look around you,<br />
At all the bridges you have burned,<br />
All the bridges you have burned.<br />
<br />
Won’t you listen, my sisters and brothers,<br />
To a secret shared by elves?<br />
When we close our eyes to others,<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
<br />
You feel this border world is dying,<br />
Without making any sound.<br />
In order to deal with the crying,<br />
You must take a look around;<br />
So, take a good look around.<br />
<br />
Won’t you listen, my sisters and brothers,<br />
To a secret shared by elves?<br />
When we close our eyes to others,<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
We bring the darkness upon ourselves.<br />
