watching tv during armed conflicts isn't really informative, but depressing, because it leaves us in a state of helplessness - the best way to make one dull and lose any kind of empathy with the suffering.
war and terror is mainly a problem to those who are not involved or engaged, but lose all being in a wrong place at a wrong time
Lyrics
The rain
Leaders and masses Brothers split in races
Envy versus cheer Thoughts bred in hate
Wisdom always to late Violence engenders fear
I saw her running down the road
Dead son kept in her coat
She held him warm, won`t let him go
But someone else did so
Once this was her universe Big enough to breed
Life and laughter, love and hope Every dream she feeds
But now, somehow come All is past, all is gone
Turned into dust Where we all come from
And it slips away Though we know
Though we pray Though we`d like it to stay
And I saw the rain Coming down their faces
It won`t heal the wounds Nor wash away the traces
Leaders and masses Brothers split in races
Bricks imprison cheer Words bred in hate
Wisdom always to late Lies never heal a fear
I saw him standing like a stone in the flames
While fire burns out his name
His past his future just a house of cards
Someone loves to blow apart
Once this was his universe Big enough to breed
Live and laughter, love and hope Every dream he feeds
But now somehow come All is past all is gone
Turned into dust Where we all come from
And it slips away Though we know
Though we pray Though we`d like it to stay
And I saw the rain Coming down the faces
It won`t heal the wounds Nor wash away the traces
And I feel the pain In their desperate faces
No way to calm their rage Or wash away these traces
…..............no way to stay innocent these days
