Verse 1
Do you know what’s really black or white,
Just because nobody says it’s wrong, does that make it right?
And in the end whose got to pay?
Should we merely close our eyes? Watch our families waste away?
Why are we so afraid to cry?

Chorus
‘Cause it is a far cry from Eden!
And what we’re seeing is wasting away!
‘Cause it is a far cry from Eden!
And what we’re seeing slips to decay!

Verse 2
Human clutter fills the city streets.
Only God himself can save them as they wallow in defeat.
To live on any change we spare…
Is there any reason why no one takes the time to care?
Well are we so afraid to try?

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
Don’t you think it’s time we had a change?
Put our selfishness aside, is love so out of range?
You know it’s worth the price to pay.
Aren’t you tired of the lies? Don’t you want a better day?
Well then we’re gonna have to try!

Repeat Chorus
‘Cause it is a far cry, a far cry, and I’m crying for you!

Cry! Cry! Cry! A far cry!
