lyrics
Mother, please forgive them
For they know not what they do
Looking back in history's books
It seems it's nothing new
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
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; I saw the world burn and the seas had turned red
The sky 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
