Dying For Peace

We are wishing, hoping, dreaming Always wanting such a lot Not believing, caring, trusting Having faith in what we've got. We live in constant conflict Which never seems to cease But still we go on fighting wars Insisting it's for peace. Anger, greed and prejudice Are what we're taught from birth Not how precious life is But how much money is worth.
