There should be

As the world turns everything around,
I can't help but listen to the sound,
Of birds flying above our heads,
And stars twinkling above our grass beds.
Where distant voices shout for tomorrow,
People cry out in pure sorrow,
For lives are taken when peace has gone,
There are two where there should be one.

life is fragile in anothers hands,
It won't last long on these lands,
It's not better off out at sea,
The waves will capture you and me.
So reach for my hand through the night,
There is no reason to fight,
I shall not join in fighting you,
There are three where there should be two.

And on this day I pray,
That this war shall not stay,
For peace needs to overcome,
Before love becomes numb.
So help us through this time of need,
Help us all to learn to lead,
Our own lives in which we see,
There are four where there should be three.

Redemptions rope rescues us all,
Trying to help us from mankinds fall,
Yet we seem to just cut the rope,
Before complaining that we can't cope.
Forgive us for our wrong doings,
Our world left in ruines,
The world we love is gone,
There were five when there is now none.
