Get a little frightened sometimes

Get a little cold inside

Catching bad news on the radio

Get a little information

There's a lack of destination

With the talk of global arms control



A fatal pollution

A hole in the sky

In Beirut the hate is burning

Islam revolution

And religious fights



There are lethal heroes in time

Are we lethal heroes gone blind



And often I sit and wonder

I clearly hear the thunder

Coming on strongly with the eastern winds

If there's a God in heaven

From whom the Earth was given

Stop this madness that we're living in



While terror and torture

Is raping our lands

Genocide is taking over

The logical sense

Seems out of hand



[Chorus]



When ever you listen

You'll hear the cry of freedom

But it's a long bloody way

Seems out of reach

When do we teach

How to live

Somebody tell me



[Chorus]
