oh great eagle

can you hear the voices of the dying children
can you hear the screams of horror
kill kill kill
echoes in the cradle of civilization  

kill kill kill
like a ghost of a world  

kill kill kill
like a sad evolution  

is this what we want
is this what we pray for
when talking to what ever god it is we believe in  

kill kill kill
I feel the bloody tears
run like rivers
 

countless bodies
carnage
 

I wish I knew a song
I could hum to the hawks
to lure them into another perspective
so they might see what I see

I see a globe
where we all have the right to be who we are
to believe in what we believe
a world of forgiveness
a world of unity
 

oh great eagle
the symbol of spirit
of infinite vision
when did you grow blind
|
when did you become deaf
and dumb  ##
