The Moment

The Moment

A million years
Fighting with stones and sticks
Bullets, bombs and missiles
We've waited so long
Patiently watching
Waiting for the world to change
Looking for that one moment
When people don't fight
Could humanity survive that moment
What would the human species do
It could never understand
That moment needs to happen
But it can never happen
Humanity will never let it
