Looking for Angels

Going through this life, looking for angels

People passing by, looking for angels

Walk this world alone

Try to stay on my feet

Sometimes crawl, fall but I stand up

'Cause I'm afraid to sleep

Open my eyes to a new day

With all new problems and all new pain

All the faces are filled with so much anger

Losing our dignity and hope from fear of danger

After all the wars, after settling the scores

At the break of dawn we will be deaf to the answers

There's so much bigotry, misunderstanding and fear

With eyes squinted and fists clinched we reach out for what is dear

We want it, we want, we want a reason to live

We're on a pilgrimage, a crusade for hope

'Cause in our hearts and minds and souls we know

We need it, we need, we need more than this

Going through this life, looking for angels

People passing by, looking for angels

Walking down the streets, looking for angels

Everyone I meet, looking for angels

So many nations with so many hungry people

So many homeless scrounging around for dirty needles

On the rise, teen suicide, when we will realize

We've been desensitized by the lies of the world

We're oppressed and impressed by the greedy

Whose hands squeeze the life out of the needy

When will we learn that wars, threats and regrets

Are the cause and effect of living in fear

Who can help protect the innocence of our children

Stolen on the Internet with images they can't forget

We want it we want, we want a reason to live

We represent a generation that wants to turn back a nation

To let love be our light and salvation

We need it, we need, we need more than this

Going through this life, looking for angels

People passing by, looking for angels

Walking down the streets, looking for angels

Everyone I meet, looking for angels

I became a savior to some kids, I'll never meet

Sent a check in the mail to buy them something to eat

What will you do to make a difference, to make a change?

What will you do to help someone along the way?

Just a touch, a smile as you turn the other cheek

Pray for your enemies, humble yourself, love's staring back at me

In the midst of the most painful faces

Angels show up in the strangest of places

Going through this life, looking for angels

People passing by, looking for angels

Walking down the streets, looking for angels

Everyone I meet, looking for angels

Going through this life, looking for angels

People passing by, looking for angels

Walking down the streets, looking for angels

Everyone I meet, looking for angels

Going through this life, looking for angels

People passing by, looking for angels

Walking down the streets, looking for angels

Everyone I meet, looking for angels

Going through this life, looking for angels
