It’s all around us
No one escapes
Random acts
In violent ways
Seems like nothing
Ever shames us
But murder is outrageous
So long, what for
Another consequence of war
So long, what for
Another consequence of war

So many colors
And many faiths
But fear and ignorance
Is hard to change
Misguided teachings
Are passed for generations
With no tolerance or patience
So long, what for
Another consequence of war
So long, what for
Another consequence of war

History don’t lie
History don’t lie
We repeat the same things

It’s everywhere
It’s in the news
It’s real life
It’s me and you
Etched in our psyches
Like a tattoo
I see the future in my rear view
So long, what for
Another consequence of war
So long, what for
Another consequence of war
So long, what for
Another consequence of war
So long, what for
Another consequence of war
