The end quote is from the
Linkin Park song "Hands Held High"
Which is what inspired this.

~L.~


Another Language, But We Sing The Same Song.



The innocent are the losers of greed
the rich don't care, it's not them that bleed,
why must we rage war against each other,
Don't "They" understand it makes the poor more suffer?

I hang my head, our dark ways make me ashamed
is it human nature, or our leaders, that's to be blamed?
why is it so hard to just get along?
It's another language but we all sing the same song.

Will peace ever see the light of day?
"When the rich wage war, it's the poor that pay"
