Humanity Lyrics

I wake up to the sun

The news has just begun

Yet another blood-soaked smoking gun

The paper at my feet

Shows me terror in the streets

Another war, and human nature won

TV channels turn

From cut to torn to burned

Watching people pay the human cost

Another face in tears

Every day of every year

I wanna think hope is never lost

For everywhere

Are people who care

Other souls who cling to sanity

The love in their hearts

Is light in the dark

Shining on our humanity

I walk into a bitter day

Looking hard to blindly lose my way

Every soul will have a price to pay

But there are miracles for which I didn't pray

And turning around

Closer to ground

In every act of kindness I can see

That even a spark

Pierces the dark

Shining on our humanity

For everywhere

Are people who care

Other souls who cling to sanity

The love in their hearts

Is light in the dark

Shining on our humanity

And turning around

Closer to ground

In every act of kindness I can see

That even a spark pierces the dark

Of our humanity
