Where does love go when the hope is taken over by despair
See the innocent may die, see them hurting their own kind
Listen to the people scream are they just out of their own mind

You just sit back in your chair, can?t stop what?s already begun
When you?re not the only one, who?s feels there?s way too many guns
Everyone is in despair, can?t stop what?s already begun

See the war on the TV, doesn?t seem that real to me
Cause everyday there?s people dying people trying to get free
Is it worth all of the pain, is it even worth the game
It?s a fight for independence, see it time and time again
