Lyrics for Song: Childhood's End
Lyrics for Album: Eddie: Head Box [13 Cds] [1998]
I'd sail across the ocean
I'd walk a hundred miles
If I could make it to the end
Oh just to see a smile
You see it in their faces
The saddness in their tears
The despereation and the anger
Madness and the fear
[Chorus]
No hope, no life, just pain and fear
No food, no love, just greed is here
Starvation and the hunger
The suffering and the pain
The agonies of all-out war
When will it come again?
The struggle for the power
A tyrant tries again
Just what the hell is going on?
When will it ever end?
[Chorus]
You see the full moon float
You watch the red sunrise
We take this things for granted
But somewhere someone's dying
Contaminated waters
Pollution and decay
Just waiting for disease to strike
Oh will we learn someday?
No hope, no life, just pain and fear
No food, no love, no seed, childhoods end.
