life is a warzone sometimes i think
to many things to miss if you blink
man races on at a furious pace
spreading his havoc all over the place
it's so easy today to forget who you are
so easy to hurt and devour the scar
we've got to much power it's dangerous you know
this world that we live in is going to blow
we destroy one another at the drop of a hat
fighting to get to the cream of the fat
lifes lost it's way and thats really sad
what happened to all of the dreams that we had
lets get back to basics before it's to late
and all of the love we have left turns to hate
the world is our oyster we don't have to lose
we don't have to live at the end of a fuse
it's so easy to hand out the guns and the tanks
kill one another then hide behind ranks
relax take it easy stop pacing the floor
we owe it our children to live without war
our kids are our future theres so much to give
what right do we have to destroy where they live
they are looking to us to show them the way
all this will be theirs at the end of the day
they grow up so quickly and time hurries by
from babies to adults in the blink of an eye
it's up to us now to give them a break
or what sort of adults are they ging to make
kids learn by example come on make a stand
teach them some values and lend them a hand
it will be hard to undo all the damage we've done
we've been hurting each other since time first begun
but it's much worse today than ever before
cos people just don't seem to care anymore
children are starving in far away places
it kills me to see all that pain on their faces
it's so easy to accept that thats how it is
but how would you like to swop places with his
look at your children and hear what they say
teach them the truth and don't lead them astray
put down your weapons lets make a new start
theres so much to live for with hope in your heart
to many things to miss if you blink
man races on at a furious pace
spreading his havoc all over the place
