Has a little piece of truth and beauty died ?

Burning up the atmosphere and cutting down the trees
The billion dollar bombing of a nation on it's knees

Anyone not marching to their tune they call it treason

Everyone says God is on his side

See the lightning, hear the cries
Of the wounded in a world in Holy war
Mortal thunder from the skies
Killing everything we say were fighting for

Broken babies, broken homes
Broken-hearted people dying everyday
How'd this happen, what went wrong
Don't blame God;
I swear I heard him say ;

"Not in my name, not on my ground
I want nothing but the ending of the war
No more killing, or it's over
And the mystery won't matter anymore"

Broken dreamers, broken rules
Broken-hearted people just like me and you

We are children of the stars

Don't blame God, I swear to God he's crying too
