Innocent death
So tell me what war is
Why should we repeatedly take?
Lives of the innocent people
Surely it’s their leader we hate
Many places are governed
Under no control of their own
They have no vote, no democracy
When their countries fight they’re alone
Refugees with no home or food
Left to die with no grave
Innocence in the name of death
Justice spelt with letters of the slave
Maybe practice is the way forward
Yet, can’t it be resolved over a table
Rather than in some bloody battle
Please don’t tell me nobody’s able
