The effects of war
September 2, 2014
Welcome to the world that you so blindly see
An AK47 was just shot with glee
Blood spilling everywhere, but we let is be?
Scatter the ashes into the sea
What if everyone went on a killing spree?
What if everyone had the right to be free?
1000 dead bodies just lying around
Another lifeless body just hit the ground
That´s sickness, that feeling that you feel inside
You want to run away, you want to run and hide
So much hatred that is in your eyes
Why must you choose who lives and who dies?
Don't you hear the pain they feel and their silent cries?
