for peace þarký sözü

it´s in the paper every day
you see it in the headlines and you feel so sick
as another life leaves this world - this world so full of hate - but short!
short on compassion, short on humanity
asking myself in vain, shaken by the shock¡
"do we even have a chance?"
i don´t want to die
i don´t want to kill
i don´t want to kill
i don´t want to die
we are all human
it´s time to prove it
this is a plea for peace (world peace)
to the oppressors of the world (and to¡)
to the leaders of nations,
corporate profit takers,
to the every day citizen
greed, envy, fear, hate- the competition has to stop!
when you see someone down - now is the time to pick ´em up
set our difference aside and never look back!
i don´t want to die
i don´t want to kill
i don´t want to kill
i don´t want to die
we are all human
it´s time to prove it
isn´t everybody tired of the fighting?
isn´t everybody tired of the killing?
isn´t everybody tired of the dying?
isn´t everybody tired of the hatred?
violence?
fighting?
killing?
dying?
-excerpts from "i have a dream" by dr. martin luther king
i don´t want to die
i don´t want to kill
i don´t want to kill
i don´t want to die
we are all human
