Wake Up
No one blames Jesse James for shooting Tonto
Genocide pilgrim pride choose a side pronto
Once the buffalo thundered on the plain
You ask yourself why is there so much pain?
And so the empires fall
Once so handsome once so tall
I guess this is our wake up call
Children crying children dying
John Chivington hell fire is too good for you
Over in Gaza we got more deja vous
Which holocaust do you plan on counting
The hate is great and the evil mounting
And so the empires fall
Once so handsome once so tall
I guess this is our wake up call
Children crying children dying
Hey there Ronnie I know you remember me
I painted you a picture of a bird in a tree
You read volumes of psyche books back in school
The path of healing isn’t in being cruel
And so the empires fall
Once so handsome once so tall
I guess this is our wake up call
Children crying children dying
Do unto others as you would have done to you
Jesus’s words after centuries still ring true
Beat all the swords into plowshares for sure
One glad day we won’t study war no more
And so the empires fall
Once so handsome once so tall
I guess this is our wake up call
Children crying children dying
