The Peace We Should Have Had
Moral decay comes from man's godlessness
Like tendrils slowly choking a country.
Man's pride and arrogance, his ruthlessness
All bring about the chains of anarchy.
A blinded people turns away from God
And what is right and wrong they fail to see,
They don't know He's the Peace we should have had.
