The curse of blood

Falls upon this nation

I wash my hands

And hang my head in shame

I pray for peace

And forge the crooked valley

This dreader fear

Held prisoner inside me



I search the stars, still I find

No rhyme or reason

I can't see a thing

That's gonna make it right, oh make it right



You're still walking at midnight

Alone with voices in your mind

You see the world in black and white

You know until you see the light

There ain't no end, no end in sight



I can't justify

The cleansing of society

The human race

It ain't no race at all

I breach the flood

Of political insanity

Where hope once stood

Is filled with lies and shame
