Make Over cover
09. Understanding
Album: Make Over
Artist: Eileen Howard
 

I don’t understand you, girl with such dark eyes
Shrouded with silence, imprisoned with laws
From a different world, and it’s us you despise.
The hatred grows and another child cries.

I don’t understand you, boy with angry eyes
Living your jihad, fated, defiant
Killing as ancient hatreds mix fear and lies
Thousands die, and the world is compliant!

This tree of life feeds us all.
No limb is formed apart from the tree
If I cut off your branch, I myself will fall
We must find the root for all to be free

I should understand you, something in me cries
Explore your mystery, and I’ll find mine
Let me see God dancing in your eyes
Help me understand you
Let the light shine

This tree of life feeds us all.
No limb can be formed apart from the tree
If I cut off your branch, then I will fall
We must find the root for all to be free

I should understand you, cut through all the lies.
Explore your mystery, and you’ll see mine
I can see God dancing in your eyes
Help me understand you
Let me recognize you
Teach me to love you
Let the light shine!
