The Magic Word

Do you know the magic word Do you know the secret I once knew the tragic bird Long ago Are we near the end of times? Yonder waits the pain I can hear dead children's rhymes Sounding in vain STOP KILLING! STOP KILLING! STOP KILLING! Give life a chance Deep down you know what's right or wrong Deep down below, inside you... Deep down you know where you belong Which side you're on... But you are the one To choose right or wrong It's better to lose all you've won Than to lose the son! STOP KILLING! 'Cos it is always wrong STOP KILLING! You've gotta know what's right or wrong STOP KILLING! We've got to know where we belong STOP KILLING! 'Cos it is always wrong STOP KILLING! 'Cos it is every life is sacred Though you know the magic word Though you feel the pain... Still your bow and our words There's no gain... Do you dare to throw the first stone? Are you without blame? Do you care to know the first one? Are you without shame? Are there flowers in your heart Still alive or are they charred? Are the towers of your heart Full of life or are they barred? Feel your heart! Are the windows of your heart Full of light or are they shut Are the echoes of your past Will they fade or will they last? Will they remember you? In the name of the one you love In the name of the one you trust In the name of the one above Give life a chance STOP KILLING! STOP - STOP KILLING! STOP KILLING! STOP KILLING! Stop KILLING! STOP KILLING! GIVE LIFE A CHANCE
