Middle East歌詞

Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. - I Could Build You A Tower

You just sit there in silence whilst the world cries out in vain
On the television screens and the newspaper headlines
we read today
There's a war going on in the middle east and the fallout
affects us all
but nobody out there's prepared to talk
There's a war going on on our own front door
step with the Jews and Islam-aphoebes
because every time a bomb
goes off we get religious probes
There will always be
extremists acting in their names of god
But the gods they worship will never hear them call
I could build you a tower
I could set you apart from all
the wars and the violence towards the pure of heart
I could build you a tower
I could build you a tower
I could build you a tower
but they'll only burn it down
There's an 8 year old boy in Lebanon
with a rifle in his hands
his parents betray his innocence
as he's old enough to be a man
as a teenage boy in Columbine fires automatic rounds
into the hordes of students as bodies hit the ground
The waters rise to enormous heights off
the coast of North Korea
with all the weapons testing our worlds investing
in nuclear fear
I'm counting down the days until this earth destroys itself
through our ignorance gluteny and wealth
I could build you a tower
I could set you apart from all
the wars and the violence towards the pure of heart
I could build you a tower
I could build you a tower
I could build you a tower
but they'll only burn it down
I could build you a tower
I could set you apart from all
the wars and the violence towards the pure of heart
I could build you a tower
I could build you a tower
I could build you a tower
but they'll only burn it down
