Only Beauty Can Save The World

The fathers are all missing
The mothers are all dead
The children are all starving
There is no daily bread
A land destroyed, a country gone
Eyes as cold as death
Politicians are as silent
As a dead baby's breath

A lonely cry, a solemn voice
Only beauty can save the world
A midnight bell, a funeral march
Only beauty can save the world

Different rules exist it seems
As families are left to die
You are scorned if you oppose it
Or ask the question why?
When you see your friends killed
Right before your eyes
When the killers have impunity
The law does not apply

A battle cry, a morning prayer
Only beauty can save the world
Your silence is complicity
Only beauty can save the world
