time for a change (revised)

An original music video for a protest song by Cynth. Images were taken from many Internet sources, though I think that is covered under "fair use".

I wrote the lyrics for this song last year, BTW.

Lyrics:

Time for a Change

When you open your eyes
do you see it?
When you open your mouth
do you speak it?
when you say you'll do anything for love
do you mean it?

What I have done
has never changed the world.
Maybe I just never did enough.
what I have said
has never changed your mind.
Maybe I never said the right stuff.

(Refrain)
Well, it's time for a change
of mind, of heart, of soul.
The time is now
before we get too old.
Yes, it's time for a change
before it gets too late,
before our best intentions
evaporate.

When I was younger
I looked out for a sign.
Perhaps I looked in all the wrong places.
Now that I'm older
I see it all too clear.
I never did cover all the bases.

(repeat Refrain)

While the would turns,
as your soul burns,
searching for what you cannot see...
don't tell yourself your life cannot be free.
(repeat Refrain x2)

When you open your eyes
do you see it?
When you open your mouth
do you speak it?
when you say you'll do anything for love
do you mean it?
