Lost In A Lost World

Woke up today

I was crying

Lost in a lost world

So many people are dying

Lost in a lost world



Some of them are living an illusion

Bounded by the darkness of their minds

In their eyes it's nation against nation against nation

With racial pride

Sad hearts they hide

Thinking only of themselves

They shun the light

They think they're right

Living in their empty shells



Oh, can you see their world is crashing?

Crashing down around their feet

Angry people in the street

Telling them they've had their fill

Of politics that wound and kill



The seeds of evolution

Revolution never won

It's just another form of gun

To do again what they have done

With all our brothers' youngest sons



Everywhere you go you see them searching

Everywhere you turn you feel the pain

Everyone is looking for the answer

Well look again, come on my friend

Love will find us in the end

Come on my friend

We've got to bend

Down on our knees and say a prayer



Oh, can you see the world is pining

Pining for someone who really cares enough to share his love

With all of us, so we can be

An ever loving family



Have we forgotten we're all children?

Children from a family tree

That's longer than a centipede

Started long ago when you and I

Were only love



Woke today, I was crying

Lost in a lost world

So many people are dying

Lost in a lost world

So many people, so many people

Lost in a lost world

So many people, so many people

Lost in a lost world
