Lifeline

Through innocent minds the knife glides in
 Cutting the lifeline to sanity
 Replacing lives with possessions and greed
 Like blind children we search frantically
 Our hands claw the air for peace and light
 But we're offered just blackness and rage
 A new life screams as it takes its first breath
 Soon trapped in its ready-made cage
 Its hands claw the air for peace and light
 Yet it's offered just blackness and rage
 Our hands claw the air for peace and light
 But we're offered just blackness and rage
 Through innocent flesh the knife glides in
 Cutting the life-line with ease
 Replacing life with the foul stench of death
 On the fresh blood they now start to feed
 Our hands claw the air for peace and light
 But we're offered just blackness and rage
 They've taken the earth as they now take the life
 Cold concrete replaces warm soil
 We sit in the corners, minds twisted with fear
 For a world we shall soon see no more
 Our hands claw the air for peace and light
 But we're offered just blackness and rage
