Lyrics
AMID ALL THIS MADNESS
Words & Music by John Thome
© by John Thome
This world is out of control
Humanity with neither heart nor soul
Oh where did we go wrong
Life?s images deceive us all
Terror reigns and buildings fall
A troubled world in which to live
Where did we get so much hate?
How did we reach such a sorry state?
Amid all this madness, pain, anguish and sadnessIs there any future for the human race?
Suicide for the sake of God
Martyrs created by terrorist bomb
Eternal life?s but a grand facade
Dictators killing fields
Wars fought with human shields
Insanity turned upside down
Where did we get so much hate?
How did we reach such a sorry state?
Amid all this madness, pain, anguish and sadnessIs there any future for the human race?
Honesty has disappeared
Violence and death become a daily fear
Morality's become absurd
Ethics disintegrate
Nuclear arms proliferate
Life seems a race to the end
