Lyrics
Every day that goes by, a new hungry baby starts to cry Born astride a painful grave, drowned in hunger's tidal wave Pick a child that you can save, it'd be the only one If Africa escapes starvation, not only food but education The desert grows with every minute, trapping everybody in it All the children look the same, they wonder why they came But it's hard to tell the poison from the cure Harder still to know the reason why, why, why The only thing I really know for sure Is that another day, another day's gone by Every day that goes by, a brand new missile points towards the sky We're survivors of a game of chance, beneath an arms race avalanche If you survive this winter's cold, you'd be the only one If we escape annihilation, not only hope but education The world is ruled by (?), adding to their weapon piles Imagine what your taxes buy, we hardly ever try But it's hard to tell the poison from the cure Harder still to know the reason why, why, why The only thing I really know for sure Is that another day, another day's gone by Oh that this too sullied flesh would melt and resolve into a dew Suffocating lassitude, drowning in my platitude Trapped by insecurities, I'm not the only one If I survive this dislocation, have to use my education The world is ruled by belophiles, adding to their weapon piles Imagine what your taxes buy, we hardly ever try But it's hard to tell the poison from the cure Harder still to know the reason why, why, why The only thing I really know for sure Is that another day, another day's gone by
