Childhood's End Songtext / Lyric

I'd sail across the ocean

I'd walk a hundred miles

If I could make it to the end

Oh just to see a smile



You see it in their faces

The saddness in their tears

The desperation and the anger

Madness and the fear



No hope, no life, just pain and fear

No food, no love, just greed is here



Starvation and the hunger

The suffering and the pain

The agonies of all-out war

When will it come again?






The struggle for the power

A tyrant tries again

Just what the hell is going on?

When will it ever end?



No hope, no life, just pain and fear

No food, no love, just greed is here



You see the full moon float

You watch the red sunrise

We take this things for granted

But somewhere someone's dying



Contaminated waters

Pollution and decay

Just waiting for disease to strike

Oh will we learn someday?



No hope, no life, just pain and fear

No food, no love, no seed, childhoods end.
