The world

The world is screaming out its pain
the minds of many are insane
the world could be a beautiful place
harmony and love in every race.
 
The world is a haunted place
you can see it etched on many a face
what does the future hold for the next generation
in this island land and all the worlds nations.
 
Flames burn on the city streets
roaring sounds of the patrol car to the cities heartbeat
quarrels between man and wife
end up in murder after the feel of the knife.
 
Will this earth ever feel sane
will this earth ever be free of its united pain.
