voices are not made to speak the truth, in a shivering cold and lose their lives
but to shout and scream! GET OUT OF MY LIFE!!!
eyes are not made to see the reality, I was there, I was there, I was there

guns may kill millions of men save our future
homes may be shuttered join hands together
and lives may be called in danger for what we want is
but one thing is for sure Peace Not War.
