Blood on the World's Hands lyrics

Sometimes it makes me wonder

Sometimes it makes me question

Sometimes it makes me saddened

Always it makes me angry but

When you can see it happening

The madness that's all around you

Nobody seems to worry

The World seems so powerless to act

It's out of control

Blood on The World's hands

Each day a new toll

Another assassination

The same day a new creation

But what are they coming into

Security of a world that brings

One day another killing

Somewhere there's someone starving

Another a savage raping

Meanwhile there's someone laughing at us

It's out of control

Blood on The World's hands

Each day it goes on

Brutality and aggression

Tomorrow another lesson

Expecting another air raid

Praying for a ceasefire

They say things are getting better

No need to be complacent

There's chaos across the border

And one day it could be happening to us

It's out of control

Blood in The World's hands

It's our epitaph

It's out of control

Someone should know

Blood on The World's hands

Someone should
