Texty

[Verse 1]
Why do the babies starve?
There's enough food to feed the world
Why when there's so many of us
Are there people still alone?
[Verse 2]
Why are the missiles called peace keepers
When they're aimed to kill?
Why is a woman still not safe
When she's in her home?
[Verse 3]
Love is hate
War is peace
No is yes
We're all free
[Verse 4]
But somebody's gonna have to answer
The time is coming soon
Admidst all these questions and contradictions
There's some who seek the truth
[Verse 5]
Tell me, why do the babies starve?
There's enough food to feed the world
Why when there's so many of us
Are there people still alone?
[Verse 6]
Why are the missiles called peace keepers
When they're aimed to kill?
Why is a woman still not safe
When she's in her home?
[Verse 7]
Love is hate
War is peace
No is yes
We're all free
[Verse 8]
But somebody's gonna have to answer
The time is coming soon
When the blind remove their blinders
And the speechless speak the truth
[Verse 9]
Tell me, why do the babies starve?
There's enough food to feed the world
Why when there's so many of us
Are there people still alone?
[Verse 10]
Why are the missiles called peace keepers
When they're aimed to kill?
Why is a woman still not safe
When she's in her home?
[Verse 11]
Love is hate
War is peace
No is yes
We're all free
