It'll Be A Long Time

 

     All this time has whittled away
     Like so many days in one
     Back and forth the leaders sway
     Backing it up with guns
     Superpowers flex their wings
     Hold the world on puppet strings
     Egos will feed
     While citizens bleed
     That's always the way it goes
     When will the world listen to reason
     I've got a feeling it'll be a long time
     When will the truth come in to season
     I've got a feeling it'll be a long time
     All they want is what they can defend
     Before their time is up
     Make the same mistakes again
     Heard it all before
     Superpowers flex their wings
     Hold the world on puppet strings
     Egos will feed
     While citizens bleed
     That's always the way it goes
     Well if they tried
     Maybe they'd see
     It'd do a little good to let the world be free
     Handshake and a smile
     Gets you on through
     Then turn it all around with a suicide move
     But you know it's not fooling anyone but me
     You gotta make yourself see what you want to see
