Recompense

All the years, fears and tears from the past

Lessons for all to learn

Clinging to life, how long will it all last?

As long as there is fire we'll burn

There's a hole in this world

A hole in the soul of mankind

The whole of this world

Is pulling down and leaving waste behind

Tell me, son, is the street where you call home?

Will a weapon calm your nerves?

Is your mother crying for a fix

While your father lays in the curb?

We must be brave

And make another way

Culminate all the forces of this life

Hold them deep inside

Till one day time comes for its release

Time will change for you and I

Fill the hole in this world

Block the hole in the soul of mankind

The whole of this world

Must be strong and change for all time
