Another War

It's been hard times and struggle
For the evolving human race,
So much heartache and sorrow
But the power of the human mind
Has kept us on our course
To see a better day tomorrow
And now, finally, we have the means for an easy life for all
But still so much suffering, noone's breaking down that wall

And I won't do anything
But right another song to sing
And I don't wanna care anymore
Let 'em start another war

Maybe I should look around
And make my fingers point
At the saints and all the sinners
Or maybe it's just nature's way
Like a hawk that's swooping down
To eat it's prey for dinner
But, no matter what, I never will see no good reason why
Anyone should have to look up to see a bomb fall from the sky

And I won't do anything
But right another song to sing
And I don't wanna care anymore
Let 'em start another war

I could pour out my heart And say how bad it makes me feel
But, I'd just as soon forget it
Because the comfort I'm affordedI comes at someone else's pain
I should be ashamed to admit it
But, I live in this culture built to shield me from this shame
With a pursuit of happiness and a faceless 'them' to blame

And I won't do anything
But right another song to sing
And I don't wanna care anymore
Let 'em start another war
