I've seen our hatred and diamond mines And the love between us roared and chimed And I know somewhere there's peace on Earth tonight And I've seen the boys looking at the girls And I've seen that look on men who destroy the world And the words we must never forget I pray we might Poets dropping wisdom on grimy urban beats From the shallow words my generation speaks And we had our go I say good luck to that Israeli beauty with darkroom eyes 2000 years of war you stop and then reprise And you shoot one of ours and we just shoot one back The hallelujah of mankind once more is dimmed From skateboard parks the new light in us begins And old men praying in costumes for the dead When darkness falls its youths light we need To be adult is to be scared of being free And children politics is the thing beneath your bed Theres love and books with a Greek friend of mine He who gave back the sight to those once blind And he reminded me to sing because I can But we'll survive on mothers breast She feeds the Gods of this Earth the best One last cry for freedom from an old man
