Rough Silk - Why lyrics

Once water took the fire And landscapes ate the seas Then preachers grew and hatred too The birth of a disease I'm afraid of new crusaders Who force our freedom's fall Religions still course so much pain And backs against the wall Are we just too blind to see Will we never learn how great This life could be Why do we praise the fight Tell me why Can't we take the night away Why must children cry Can't we make this world a better place Without hatred day by day Why can't we finally find a way We need no heroes To protect us from our fears Just by filling children's eyes with tears Innocent victims of fanatics gone insane "This power will last forever" they said And millions died in vain Are we just too blind to see Why do we praise the fight Tell me why Can't we take the night away Why must children cry Can't we make this world a better place Without hatred day by day Why can't we finally find a way
