Maybe it's our destiny The real truth got lost at sea drowned with The scars of war Then left to wash ashore Lights go out through streets and houses Fallen lives cut like red roses Fire raging high Lighting up the sky People live in fear As they wait for the “all clear” Picking up the pieces of their lives
Once in a lifetime Walking on land mines Nations step on one another Detonating all mankind
Pray, pray for better days New horizons will unfold And we could live forever (Forever and ever) Pray, pray for better days new beginnings if they wake will they ever tell?
Sirens sound all through the night Living underground till morning light Watching babies born Waiting for the dawn Propaganda life is bliss The future sealed with a crucifix They said it all before The politics of war Leader's drinking wine The blind leading the blind Can't remember what they're fighting for
Cities in dust Memories left there to rust In hearts and minds they survive Keeping loved ones alive No words can express To describe how desperate Many had become it Seemed like an eternity for some
