Amos Lee - Jails And Bombs lyrics
Your rating:
The one I love is lost without the least bit of explanation Just goes to show the futility of self-preservation Now all I seem to see is all this war and going amongst our nations What good will it do Now everybody wants to know the secrets to our salvation Forever reading on and on, from Genesis to Revelation But never stop for a second to examine situations After all that we've been through And will it only ends When there's nothing left to defend Will we ever see, yeah, yeah The common bond of humanity Get a landscape of famine and also of frustration And children walking 'round without the proper means to education And still up there on Capitol Hill they're passing all this legislation For jails and bombs Still we live behind these hollow walls of lies and segregation People walking round without the proper means to medication And still up there on Capitol Hill they're passing all this legislation For jails and bombs To anybody out there, hear my prayer Anybody out there, hear my prayer Anybody out there, hear my prayer We need all of you back down here We need all of you back down here We need all of you back down here
