Another year goes by
Times are changing, pain subsides
They talk of days of old
We'll never be the same
But we are
living in circles
Repeating what we know
Only war and destruction
Seems to steal the show
Stop this madness!
Stop this
sadness!
Stop this madness!
Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will
the children cry
Now we must be strong
To reach the point that we belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for
wasted years
So many songs have been sung
We long for freedom often won
And marched with heads held high
Then asked the
question "Why?"
Is there really a reason?
Are there ways to break this mold?
We're getting louder and louder
But the
volume is controlled
Stop this madness!
Stop this sadness!
Stop this madness!
Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere
there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will the children cry
Now we must be strong
To reach the point that we
belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for wasted years
Stop this madness!
Stop this
sadness!
Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will the children
cry
Now we must be strong
To reach the point that we belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for wasted
years
Somewhere at the edge
Somewhere there's a dream alive
Defy the life we have
And never will the children cry
Now
we must be strong
To reach the point that we belong
Drowning in wasted tears
Will never compensate for wasted years
Stop
this madness!
