Why

I still recall the first time
Death appeared against the skyline
When the bombs were falling
I heard my mother calling
You better come inside son
Then I heard a shotgun
One shot that killed my mother
Already lost my father
That sniper couldn't miss her
She died without a whisper
Life turned into a nightmare
One thing's for sure there's
No place left to hide
When day turns into night
This war will never end
It's hard to comprehend why
I tried to help a lady
Rescue her little baby
I thought that I could save them
Protect them from this mayhem
Now don't it make you wonder
What made society blunder
No one seems to be willing
To put a stop to all this killing
We'll do our best to manage
To avoid collateral damage
Must be the road to nowhere
I'm pretty sure there's
No place left to hide
When day turns into night
This war will never end
It's hard to comprehend
Why can't we just live in peace
There's no trust
Our disease has no cure
We all die immature
If we don't stop this fight
Stop this fight
Stop this fight
There's no place left to hide
When day turns into night
This war will never end
It's hard to comprehend why
