War
The world is on the brink
Time to change the way we think.
The time is at hand
You must understand
So long we have fought
What lessons have they thought
We can't go on living in hate
It's not to late
No one can possibly win
You know how it's been
Someone will always cry
Sometimes wondering why
People have to die
Shame
But it remains the same
You live in anger
All live in danger
When we don't have to
This is true
We don't have to fight
To prove who is right
But we can't go on this way
Not caring what we say
How we act
A lie is a fact
Start a war
Kill some more
When will it stop being this way
When no one is left to have their say
The sun is setting on our age
Let's turn the page
The world hurts and lashes out
Hate is what they shout
Love should rule all
Before mankind starts to fall
Before it's to late
We can change this fate
We must
In mankind I trust
