"Seeds" lyrics

"Seeds"

Whatever happened to the human race?
The land is soiled, blood spilling grace
But we all wash our hands in innocence
And we throw away the evidence
Liberty can set you free
But first you have to find it desperately
So don't be heard to talk about the preach
Before you harvest, you must sow the seeds

Young men die and their mothers cry
And no chance to say goodbye

Universal love be
Such a beautiful fantasy
Too remote to stand by
As our brothers and sisters cry
Universal love be
Such a beautiful fantasy
No devotion to justify
They take our children and we take their lives

How many more
Before we wake up from insanity?
There's no good war
Only love grows the seeds of humanity

Young men die and their mothers cry
And no chance to say goodbye

Universal love be
Such a beautiful fantasy
Too remote to stand by
As our brothers and sisters cry
Universal love be
Such a beautiful fantasy
No devotion to justify
They take our children and we take their lives

Raise your hands and reach the light
Don't you ever think they're on your side
They keep selling their fancy lies
But they can put it where the sun don't shine
