world wide suicide

i felt the earth on monday
it moved beneath my feet
in the form of a morning paper
laid out for me to see

saw his face in a corner picture
i recognized the name
could not stop staring at the
face i d never see again

it s a shame to awake in a world of pain
what does it mean when a war has taken over

it s the same everyday in a hell manmade
what can be saved, and who will be left to hold her?

the whole world...world over
it s a worldwide suicide

medals on a wooden mantle
next to a handsome face
that the president took for granted
writing checks that others pay

and in all the madness
thought becomes numb and naive
so much to talk about nothing for to say

it s the same everyday and the wave won t break
tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder

laying claim to the take that our soldiers save
does not equate, and the truth s already out there

the whole world,... world over
it s a worldwide suicide

the whole world,... world over
it s a worldwide suicide

looking in the eyes of the fallen
you got to know there s another, another, another, another
another way

it s a shame to awake in a world of pain
what does it mean when a war has taken over

it s the same everyday and the wave won t break
tell you to pray, while the devils on their shoulder

the whole world,... world over
it s a worldwide suicide

the whole world,... world over
it s a worldwide suicide
