LIfe is ticking...life is gone...
We spend our whole life debating whats right or wrong.
We try to live life the way we think we should;
But many of us wish to turn back time if we could.
Lets take a look at the world today;
Its full of hate,violence,and betray.
If i could change it, i would in no seconds flat;
But unfortunalty ,its impossible to do that.
One decision effects everybody living in the now;
But when our children look back...they will ask us how ?
How we thought it was ok to go to war and kill inocent lives;
How it was ok to kill men and whats left is widowed wives.
A child's tear runs down her face;
Because she doesn't know whats happening in this place.
That tear drop leads to a trail down her cheek;
And you can see it cut through the dust and debris.
A soldier watches his fellow brother's plane get shot down;
He watches it crash and burn to the ground.
Now what was in his heart before;
Has just been introduced to the killing and horror.
Now all he feels is anger and hate;
His pain will be in the way to debate.
What to do when he comes across the man;
Who crashed his brothers plane into the sand.
