Fertile Crescent - Lyrics by Bad Religion


Lyrics
Come and see the brilliant lightdon't let your emotions mask your sightit's the manifestation of a deeper fightthat affects me and youmy optimism was running higha new world order was on my mindbut I couldn't belive it when I heard them saythey're blowing it awayand the fertile crescent is burning todayand baby my emotions are toothe cradle of humanity has led us all astrayand we're all in this tigether don't you know'cause our species has nowhere else to goaggression rears its ugly headretaliation brings further dreadthe two are linked by unseen threadsthat wind back through time
I don't agree with the outdated trendnationalism is an evil friendbut hatred is instilled by invisible linesdrawn in our mindsand the fertile crescent is haunting us todayand baby our instincts are toothe ghost of humanity is warning us this wayand I think we all should need it don't you know'cause we've got nowhere else to go
