The one I love is lost without the least bit of explanation   Just goes to show the futility of self-preservation   Now all I seem to see is all this war, and goin' amongst our nations   What good will it do      Now everybody wants to know the secrets to our salvation   Forever reading on and on, from Genesis to Revelation   Never stopping for a second to examine situations   After all that we've been through      And love it only ends   When there's nothing left to defend   Will we ever see, yeah, yeah   The common bond of humanity   Go on...      Get a landscape of famine and also of frustration   And children walking round without the proper means to education   And still up there on Capitol Hill they're passing all this legislation   For jails and bombs      Still we live behind these hollow walls of lies and segregation   People walking round without the proper means to medication   And still up there on Capitol Hill they're passing all this legislation   For jails and bombs      Anybody out there can hear my prayer
