Mother please forgive them

For they know not what they do

Looking back in history's books

It seems it's nothing new

Oh let my mother live



Heaven is for heroes

And hell is full of fools

Stupidity, no will to live

They're breaking God's own rules

Please let my mother live



Father, of all creation

I think we're all going wrong

The course they're taking

Seems to be breaking

And it won't take too long



Children of the future

Watching empires fall

Madness the cup they drink from

Self destruction the toll



I had a vision,

l saw the world burn

And the seas had turned red

The sun had fallen, the final curtain

In the land of the dead



Mother, please show the children

Before it's too late

To fight each other,

There's no-one winning

We must fight all the hate
