Always be not always and if
always, bow our heads in shame.
Always, please be not always.
And if always, bow our heads in
blame.
'Cause time has made promises,
just promises.
Faces, did you see their faces?
Did they touch you?
Have you felt such pain?
To have nothing, to dream
something, then lose hoping.
Is not life but lame?
But time has made promises, just
promises.
Mothers cry, babies die
helplessly in arms while rockets
fly and
research lies in progress to
become.
But what of men are flesh and
blood?
We turn our backs on life.
How can we claim to stand for
peace when the race is armed in
strife, destroying life?
Always, be not always.
But if always, bow our heads in
shame.
Always, please, be not always.
'Cause if always, bow our heads
in blame.
'Cause time has made promises,
just promises.
