My blood runs cold when I think of the
condition of human suffering and untold
pain the atrocities of war make my stomach
turn falling tears on the earth like burning
acid rain why has it

[Chorus:]
Been so long since anyone's noticed
it's been so long since anyone's cared we
watch and wait as the world keeps turning
hoping our greed won't consume us all

This world today is like a closed box for those
who have nothing but war torn streets shine a
ray of hope a light into their lives hid deep inside
your heart may they find their relief
why has it

[Chorus]

Hate can never cease by hate in this world and
this I know so I'm gonna give you these words
and I hope you'll listen to me cuz hate never
ceases by hate in this world no
Turn about the face and face the faces of death
in a place where men die of disease and
starvation psycho warfare politicians tool won't
let them pass the torch to a new generation

[Chorus 2x]

Why has it been so long



Oh yeah, critical mass, detonation countdown, July 16th, 1945
This is how we learned to fear the bomb and wonder how we'd all ever make it out alive
And it's a strange love to love such a strange thing, you know I can't say I feel the same
And it's irony to me that a burning sensation means a world so cold it freezes your brain

[Chorus]
Oh, pile the skulls up, there must be a million or more
We'll pile the skulls on bones and ashes, there must be a million or more
Oh, bury the dead now, there must be a million or more
We'll bury the dead 'neath bones and ashes, there must be a million or more

Listen up now,
Governments may create a world of hate in which we have to live and breath every day
Fallout and radiation sickness, red pollution through the myriad waste
Building their weapons of death and mass destruction, meeting out the justice by megaton
Can we forget the Chernobyl devastation and remember the Uranium gone?

[Chorus]

One world or none, there's gotta be one world or none
There's gotta be one world or none, there's gotta be one world, one world where we can

[Chorus]
