    Story Behind the Song
    This is a song that deals with history of racism in America; and how throughout history we have ignored the problem. This song speaks in images - of the deep south, of Dr. Martin Luther King's dream speech in Washington D.C., to Malcolm X.

    Lyrics
    The lessons learned
    Are all but forgotten
    The crosses burned
    On land so darkened
    We cannot see

    Can we survive without saying a word?
    Can we survice without saying anything,
    Saying anything at all?

    There was a dream
    Spoken to millions
    From hallowed ground
    Of whitened stone foundations
    We close our eyes

    Can we survive without saying a word?
    Can we survice without saying anything,
    Saying anything at all?

    He spoke of justice
    "by any means" possible
    We saw a threat;
    Ignoring our trespasses
    We turn away

    Can we survive without saying a word?
    Can we survice without saying anything,
    Saying anything at all?

    Without saying
    Can we survive without saying anything?
    Without a word?
