Lyrics

[INTRO]
Look at the shadows creeping,
Silence in the air,
Hope is barely breathing,
But no one seems to care.

[VERSE 1]
Look at this unfortunate woman,
Her eyes plead with despair,
She’s crying for salvation,
But all you do is stare.
Her spirit’s barely hanging,
On the edge of darkest night,
You turn away your vision,
And shield your heart from sight.

[CHORUS]
Oh, where have the values gone?
In this world that feels so wrong,
When love is wrapped in paper,
And trust just feels like air,
Look at them calling out,
But you silence all their doubt,
While the cries of hungry children,
Fade away without a care.

[VERSE 2]
Look at the shelter missing,
As children weep and plead,
You hold an empty plate,
And pretend you’re planting seeds.
With every coin and dollar,
You think you’ve paid your dues,
But their laughter’s lost in echoes,
And the pain is all you choose.

[CHORUS]
Oh, where have the values gone?
In this world that feels so wrong,
When love is wrapped in paper,
And trust just feels like air,
Look at them calling out,
But you silence all their doubt,
While the cries of hungry children,
Fade away without a care.

[BRIDGE]
Family values broken,
Respect turned into dust,
We’re losing all connection,
Caught in greed and lust.
You smile through all the heartache,
Yet your heart is cold as stone,
In your kingdom built on profit,
You stand there all alone.

[CHORUS]
Oh, where have the values gone?
In this world that feels so wrong,
When love is wrapped in paper,
And trust just feels like air,
Look at them calling out,
But you silence all their doubt,
While the cries of hungry children,
Fade away without a care.

[OUTRO]
Look at the shadows creeping,
In the silence, hear their plea,
It’s you who made this hollow emptiness,
Now set their spirits free.
In a world tired of pretending,
Let your heart break the stone,
For in love’s true
