lyrics

Live a life we cannot live, without love human being is demise
Sing a song we cannot sing, cause entertaining is just a lie

Walking to the West I see
Lambs can become wolves again
Walking to the East I hear
Fierce orders of men in command
Walking to the North I feel
What is given is taken back
Walking to the South I bleed
Blood conflicts rule the world

Territory
Brothers will kill brothers
Hierarchy
Chiefs will sacrifice the others
Reproduction
A stake for global corporations
Feeding
Appetites and greed until destruction

O you stranger you tell me your ones are gone
And there's no way to find them
Their corpses buried in the fields around
But nobody blessed them
It's no miracle we live and die upon this earth
No prophets could show the way
But by the time we'll feel it's our own blood we're spilling
Will you hear me when I say:
Is this love ?
Is this love ?

Living among Christians I see
Forgiveness is never first in line
Living among Hindus I hear
Superstitious injustice stronger than life
Living among Jews I feel
A handful of dust is no sacred alibi
Living among Muslims I bleed
Blood purity ruins the world

Territory
Brothers will kill brothers
Hierarchy
Chiefs will sacrifice the others
Reproduction
A stake for global corporations
Feeding
Appetites and greed until destruction
Territory
Nature's rape by all the nations
Hierarchy
Weakness's self-justification
Reproduction
Instrumented human ressources
To feed the interests of some

O you stranger you tell me your ones are gone
And there's no way to find them
Their corpses buried in the fields around
But nobody blessed them
Guess it's no miracle we live and die upon this earth
No god will ever show the way
But by the time we'll feel it's our own blood we're spilling
Will you hear me when I say:
Is this love ?
Is this love ?

America
Brothers will kill brothers
Asia
Chiefs will sacrifice the others
Africa
A stake for global corporations
Europa
Appetites and greed until destruction
Is it love...
That will be coming from inside ?
Cause one is all and all is one...
