"Truthshine"
yes, and i remember through the echos of time
all the memories keep flooding into my mind
the people who helped and the people who hurt
please please let me be be one of the first
to settle our differences with bullets and bombs
is insanity amplified using siren songs
mistakes we have made and solutions we dream
our children deserve better than sirens that scream
weapons makers rake in their grisly profit
it matters not to them whose lives are forfeit
entrenched industry fights to remain entrenched
oblivious to the pain they gaily send in for a fin
autocrats and crackpots want you to believe
the best way to sway is to conceive to deceive
but their veneer is thin and cracks with ease
whenever the light of truthshine is unleashed
humanity must give itself a fighting chance
to overcome the madness of being entranced
religions come and religions go
all failed to stamp out free thought you know
