Love One Another

Out in the desert it’s late at night
Coyotes howling under a full moon bright
It’s getting darker even in the light
It’s almost midnight
Will we be alright?

‘Cause bombs are shooting across friendly skies
When old men dream the young men die
“Mama,” he cried before he went good night
Why can’t we just love one another?

Cities on fire from black and white scars
An equal distance never seem so far
It’s getting harder to raise the alarm
No one listens
Everyone but you lies

Cause bombs are shooting across friendly skies
When old men dream the young men die
“Mama,” he cried before he went good night
Why can’t we just love one another?
