Jails And Bombs |
| The one I love is lost without the least bit of explanation; |
| Just goes to show the futility of self-preservation |
| Now all I seem to see is all this war, and goin' amongst our nations |
| What good will it do? |
| Now everybody wants to know the secrets to our salvation; |
| Forever reading on and on, from Genesis to Revelation |
| Never stopping for a second to examine situations |
| After all that we’ve been through |
| And love it only ends |
| When there’s nothing left to defend |
| Will we ever see, yeah, yes |
| The common bond of humanity? |
| Go on… |
| Get a landscape of famine and also of frustration |
| And children walking round without the proper means to education |
| And still up there on Capitol Hill they’re passing all this legislation |
| For jails and bombs |
| Still we live behind these hollow walls of lies and segregation |
| People walking round without the proper means of medication |
| And still up there on Capitol Hill they’re passing all this legislation |
| For jails and bombs |
| Anybody out there, can hear my prayer? |
| Anybody out there, can hear my prayer? |
| Anybody out there, can hear my prayer? |
| Anybody out there, can hear my prayer? |
| Anybody out there, can hear my prayer? |
