[lyrics by Harry Conklin]



All the years, fears and tears from the past 

Lessons for all to learn 

Clinging to life, how long will it all last? 

As long as there is fire we'll burn 



There's a hole in this world 

A hole in the soul of mankind 

The whole of this world 

Is pulling down and leaving waste behind 



Tell me, son, is the street where you call home? 

Will a weapon calm your nerves? 

Is your mother crying for a fix 

While your father lays in the curb? 



We must be brave 

And make another way 



Culminate all the forces of this life 

Hold them deep inside 

Till one day time comes for its release 

Time will change for you and I 



Fill the hole in this world 

Block the hole in the soul of mankind 

The whole of this world 

Must be strong and change for all time
