00:00In a world caught in a chaos where shadows creep
00:08We build our might on mountains of sorrow
00:10Wide and deep
00:12Wide and deep
00:16With each new weapon crafted we lose our way
00:21While streets lay empty and children can't play
00:24And play
00:27Biological fears, the silent cries
00:32Nuclear whispers beneath the darkened skies
00:35Who do we serve in this endless fight
00:38Lost in the struggle, searching for the light
00:41Oh, can't you see we're lost in the games
00:44Creating bigger horrors, just play the same
00:46Our hearts roll cold while the world turns away
00:49Redirect the dreams, make a brighter day
00:53Rainbow shadows march, blinded by lies
00:56In the name of a god, the innocents die
00:59Terror unfolds, but the cries are unheard
01:01In a world of confusion where meanings blurs
01:05In the sky, death flying high
01:07Counting the cost, but who's asking why
01:10Resources squander, fortunes uphold
01:13While the feet grow weary and the young go cold
01:16Oh, can't you see we're lost in the games
01:19Creating bigger horrors, just play the same
01:22Our hearts roll cold while the world turns away
01:25Redirect the dreams, make a brighter day
01:28If we turned our weapons into food for the hungry
01:31Shelters for the lost, a world warm and sunny
01:34Imagine the beauty, the laughter we'd find
01:37In a place where compassion wasn't left behind
01:39Yet here we stand, lost in the dark
01:42Chasing illusions, chasing false marks
01:45The cost of our pride, weight in human souls
01:47Weight in human souls, while lost can't society
01:51Hate hatred of both, so let's wake up now
01:54Rise from the ashes, the making choice of love
01:57Not the pain that crushes, together we can turn this side
02:00Put the weapons down, let humanity resign
02:03Oh, can't you see we're lost in the games
02:06Creating bigger horrors, just play the same
02:09Our hearts roll cold while the world turns away
02:12Redirect the dreams, make a brighter day
02:15Wasted dreams on the battlegrounds
02:18But hope may still rise where the lover sounds
02:21If we take a step, let compassion lead the way
02:24In a world reborn, we can start today
02:27In a world reborn with a heart of a soul
02:53You
