Time and time again
I always see the same ,
The propagation of mankinds shame
As love is lost again,
In the brutality of life
That do many justify,
Though denied their basic rights
Too many people die,
Where has the love gone?
Where is our humanity,
Where has the love gone?
We lost it in our insanity,
Young children suffering,
From the loss of their family,
Ripped apart from them,
Through war or political means,
We lock people in cages
I doubt they were born bad,
It was how they were brought up
And the truth is mighty sad,
Where has the love gone?
Where is our humanity,
Where has the love gone?
We lost it in our insanity,
I shed a tear,
I am choked,
At every death I see and hear,
I grieve for humankind
That has to live in fear,
I wish that we could change this
So we no longer have to shed a tear,
But many choose to live this way
Because they enjoy the drama it appears,
Or is it they’ve never known peace
Or realise how much better it is,
Where has the love gone?
Let’s get it back, right back here,
And instill it in our hearts,
Let’s restore our humanity,
And choose to be kind as a start
Let’s rediscover the love.
