|
All I hear are peace talks and battle cries. |
|
Everyone's losing - nobody's winning, |
|
So run for your lives when the shrapnel's spinning. |
|
Pictures of the crippled - wounded on the frontline |
|
Someone else's problem - you're sitting on a landmine. |
|
When will we see reason? |
|
Sometimes |
|
I think we'll never |
|
Learn that children have the right to laugh - and dying is forever |
|
All I hear are peace talks and battle cries. |
|
No time for laughter - we're too busy dying, |
|
In this 'Devil's |
|
Playground' - bullets are flying. |
|
There's another star in heaven - and footprints on the moon |
|
So ignore the reign of terror - the bloody red monsoon. |
|
Neighbour fighting neighbour - oh see how quick they run |
|
To tear down the white flag and pick up the gun. |
|
Peace talks and battle cries - apathy can kill |
|
Put a price on human life - pay 'the butcher's bill'. |
|
Everybody's losing - nobody's winning, |
|
Run for your lives when the shrapnel's spinning. |
|
Hear my prayer from the |
|
Valley of the |
|
Shadow - For a child in an unmarked grave. |
|
Take my hand in the hour of darkness - |
|
While there's someone left to save. |
|
But you can't hear me - all you can hear are... |
|
Peace talks and battle cries - apathy can kill, |
|
Put a price on human life - pay 'the butcher's bill'. |
|
No time for laughter - we're too busy dying, |
|
In this 'Devil's |
|
Playground' where bullets are flying. |
|
I think about the children who have no hopes or homes, |
|
Born into a battlfield - war's all they've ever known. |
|
Neighbour loving neighbour - will that day ever come |
|
When we shake hands in friendship and survey the damage done. |
|
All I hear are peace talks and battle cries. |
|
Everyone's losing - nobody's winning, |
|
So run for your lives when the shrapnel's spinning. |
|
Hear my prayer from the |
|
Valley of the |
|
Shadow - For a child in an unmarked grave. |
|
Take my hand in the hour of darkness - |
|
While there's someone left to save. |
|
Why won't you help me? |
|
Why can't you hear me? |
