How many bridges crossed

How many battles lost 'til we begin waging peace
How many crosses burned

How many lessons learned 'til we begin waging peace

How many reasons why

How many more must die 'til we begin waging peace
How many souls were sold

How many lies will be told 'til we begin waging peace

The chain of hate, it must be broken

It's not too late, the wheel's in motion 
Stand up straight and break out of that line 

How many children's cries

Will shatter the darkened skies 'til we begin 
waging peace

The chain of hate, it must be broken

It's not too late, the wheel's in motion 
Stand up straight and break out of that line 

How many children's cries

Will shatter the darkened skies 'til we begin 
waging peace
'til we begin waging peace
