Come and see the brilliant light
dont let your emotions mask your sight
its the manifestation of a deeper fight
that affects me and you
my optimism was running high
a new world order was on my mind
but I couldnt belive it when I heard them say
theyre blowing it away
and the fertile crescent is burning today
and baby my emotions are too
the cradle of humanity has led us all astray
and were all in this tigether dont you know
cause our species has nowhere else to go
aggression rears its ugly head
retaliation brings further dread
the two are linked by unseen threads
that wind back through time
I dont agree with the outdated trend
nationalism is an evil friend
but hatred is instilled by invisible lines
drawn in our minds
and the fertile crescent is haunting us today
and baby our instincts are too
the ghost of humanity is warning us this way
and I think we all should need it dont you know
cause weve got nowhere else to go
