As the World Keeps Turning
misty eyes curing
my world is turning
while people's love is burning
to the ground
what has this world become
when people are out for number one
where did the innocence go?
the civilization we one had known
when everyone was equal
and everyone was free
now we fight overseas
we fight amongst ourselves
others blood is upon us
and we are living in fear
who do we depend upon
when no one cares
in this world of battered destruction
that we have caused ourselves?
