Lyrics
I don't claim to know what will save us in our modern world
theres too much at stake for our hearts not to open
when so many people are dying while I sleep warm in bed
but I still have the same nightmare of the oceans overhead
A line in the sand, is that all thats between us
and the hour is late for the branches of peace to be broken
and everything wants to go backwards with the fire burning fast
when someone wants you to answer for the sins we've put to rest
Will I live on the day when we are without reason for war
A son could be born without needlessly giving his life for
When so many people are dying while I sleep warm in bed
but I still have the same nightmare of the oceans overhead
