Someone should be watching

Oh, oh, oh, hear the warnings in the wind
Something is now brewing and our peace is wearing thin
All the world is bracing and the war is at our door
Someone should be watching..the shoes that pace our floor

Who is there among us that knows the inner need
To hear what goes unnoticed, what functions like a seed
People coming forward like friends we need to know
Can also be the wolves whose colors never show..

Oh, oh, oh,  hear the warnings in the wind
Something is now brewing, and our peace is wearing thin
All the world is bracing and the war is at our door
Someone should be watching..the shoes that pace our floor

Have you begun to wonder and felt the need to test
The validity of people who are causing such unrest
Something in their being and something in their air
Tells us we should worry and should be more aware

Oh, oh, oh,  hear the warnings in the wind
Something is now brewing, and our peace is wearing thin
All the world is bracing and the war is at our door
Someone should be watching..the shoes that pace our floor

Like the subtle soundings of the dew upon the ground
Warnings come to whisper about tragedies all around
The sky is turning colors we've never seen before
The earth is bound to see it: the most outrageous war

Oh, oh, oh,  hear the warnings in the wind
Something is now brewing, and our peace is wearing thin
All the world is bracing and the war is at our door
Someone should be watching..the shoes that pace our floor
