Are we civilised?
Are we civilised?
The answers no
We create problems
With nowhere to go.
We've ruined the planet
With our sorrowful ways
We've created wars
To end our days.
With only ashes
Beneath our feet
With Empty hearts
That shall not beat.
We've killed Millions
In our shame
We've created hunger
And who's to blame?
Do we not learn?
we're not civilised
bowing our heads
For our lies.
Justice prevails
Of that I know
We shall dwell no more
Above Or below.
Are we civilised?
The answers there
We destroy life
Without guilt or care.
Children of earth
Will suffer no more
The crimes of hate
Behind every door.
