Dark skies won't clear the tears we shed

Children dream of bread instead

Echoes of a world that's torn

We've been fighting since the dawn

Whispers of peace in the night

Shadows of hope burning bright

Can we find a way to mend

Let the violence find its end

Bullet scars on ancient walls

Families divided by these calls

Green fields turned to gray

Can we bring a brighter day

Whispers of peace in the night

Shadows of hope burning bright

Can we find a way to mend

Let the violence find its end

Leaders speak with empty vows

We long for love but don’t know how

Hand in hand across the land

Time to make our final stand

Waves of sorrow crash ashore

Dreams of harmony restore

In our hearts we keep the flame

Praying for a world of change
