Rated: E · Lyrics · Death · #2321560
Humanities at death's door, sad, but the truth.
We see hate galore.
Through acts of war.
The bombs raining down.
Extinguishing life once more.
And we sadly bare witness,
To our hate filled world.

We see the loss of life.
Though acts we deplore.
Common sense is absent,
And death keeps score.
And we sadly bare witness,
To our hate filled world.

Although life is sacred,
A priceless gift from God.
We justify our differences,
To answer the questions why.
I’ve seen enemies wielding weapons,
Saying, “I’m going to kill you!”
They’re sadly lost to hate,
Believe me, it’s true.

Can you really ignore,
What happened before.
Will there be any life left,
When hate keeps score?
We’ve fought through time,
Embracing “Us versus Them.”
We’ve become blind,
None turn their cheek.
And we sadly bare witness,
To our hate filled world.

We must forgive the past,
In order to achieve peace.
Sadly, we’ve lost our way,
Through acts of war.
Yes, Humanity’s worth saving,
Life is our sacred trust.
Act before it’s too late,
And humanity becomes dust.
