Let Peace Begin with Me - Detritus

I see those grose atrocities

I mourn those needless deaths I see

Outrage grips my soul, their pain plays on my mind

But then I can get back to life and leave it all behind

Numbered emotions, a teardrop dries away

A memory the residue that’s safely kept at bay

Lord, open my mind, open my soul, see the reality

Come, take my emotions, turn into actions, remove the apathy

Death, seen as solution, blind aggression, insensitivity

Let peace begin with me!

I blame «them», they probably blame me Deluded by security

Our actions may be raindrops, together they’re a flood

Maybe though our ignorance our own hands stained with blood

Self-preoccuaption, selfishness the knife

Man has mastered killing but he never will give life.
