lirik lagu dennis deyoung – one hundred years from now
tell me how do we begin this tragic tale
when centuries of fear and hate have left a bl–dy trail
will there come a time we’ll live to see
when the sins of our fathers and mothers will cease to be
and can we find a way to live and let live
when we know the hardest part is learning to forgive
and who will be the first, and who will be last
to admit that the future can never be lived in the past
so pray tonight, pray we must
but prayers alone cannot build the trust
for all those people whose vengeance is their vow
eye for eye, tooth for tooth
who among us will speak the truth
so our children’s children will live in peace somehow
one hundred years from now
and how do we repair the damage done
to all of those who’ve known the loss of daughters and of sons
and can we really feel another’s pain
the killing continues from adam and abel to cain
eye for eye, tooth for tooth
who among us will speak the truth
so our children’s children will live in peace somehow
one hundred years from now
so pray tonight we kill the beast
that lives among us from west to east
and to all those people whose vengeance is their vow
eye for eye, tooth for tooth
who among us will speak the truth
so our children’s children will live in peace somehow
one hundred years from now
one hundred years from now
