Once water took the fire
|
And landscapes ate the seas
|
Then preachers grew and hatred too
|
The birth of a disease
|
|
I'm afraid of new crusaders
|
Who force our freedom's fall
|
Religions still course so much pain
|
And backs against the wall
|
|
Are we just too blind to see
|
Will we never learn how great
|
This life could be
|
|
Why do we praise the fight
|
Tell me why
|
Can't we take the night away
|
|
Why must children cry
|
Can't we make this world a better place
|
Without hatred day by day
|
|
Why can't we finally find a way
|
|
We need no heroes
|
To protect us from our fears
|
Just by filling children's eyes with tears
|
|
Innocent victims of fanatics gone insane
|
"This power will last forever" they said
|
And millions died in vain
|
|
Are we just too blind to see
|
|
Why do we praise the fight
|
Tell me why
|
Can't we take the night away
|
|
Why must children cry
|
Can't we make this world a better place
|
Without hatred day by day
|
|
Why can't we finally find a way
|
