Rated: E · Lyrics · Dark · #2251094
War I loath it. Life is our true wealth on this planet. Hate uses war to justify itself.
It’s beginning to look a lot like hell here…
Everywhere I go.
I’ve taken a look around; no one can be found.
Culture and entertainment are gone.

It’s beginning to look a lot like hell here…
With COVID on the loose.
There’s no end in sight; for our perpetual plight.
Everyone’s wearing a mask.

It’s beginning to look a lot like hell here…
With austerity in full bloom.
We keep track of debts; we live with regrets.
Everyone’s a corporate slave.

It’s beginning to look a lot like hell here…
With all the empty windows.
People try to justify war, the same as times before.
Repeating our historical mistakes.

It’s beginning to look a lot like hell here…
With most folks now unemployed.
Sad with nothing to do, dreams set aside anew.
As we lose our lives.

If we looked upon each other as equals…
We would then eliminate war.
Break the cycle of hate, before it’s sadly too late.
And we would then know peace.

With war, we erase entire cultures…
Because we just don’t get along.
I pray we sees the light, before God turns from our plight!
And walks away from us all.
