(Downes/Payne/Hart)
|
We used to live in a better world
|
Where sky and water were free
|
We point the finger
|
We point the gun
|
Is that the way it should be?
|
|
We rape the land
|
And we tear the skin
|
Burn the blood In the stone
|
To fuel the fire of a selfish mind
|
Do you want to live here alone?
|
|
Lay down your arms - surrender
|
You know you'll never get out of here
|
Lay down your arms - remember
|
No force - you'd better lay down your gun
|
|
Such are the sins of humanity
|
Dark is the air that we breathe
|
A war to hide in society
|
Don't close your eyes to deceive
|
|
Too many promises
|
Too may tears
|
Where does the future lie
|
If we burn away the years
|
|
We can make this a better world
|
Where sky and water are free
|
So give the hand without the gun
|
That's the way it will be
|
