Verse I:

C Gsharp C

Come and see the brilliant lights

Don't let your emotions mask your sight

It's a manifestation of a deeper fight

Bflat G

That effects me and you

C Gsharp C

My optimism was running high

A new world order was on my mind

But I couldn't believe it when I heard them say

Bflat G

They're throwing it away . . . (highG)

Chorus I:

Eflat Bflat c Bflat C

And the fertile crescent is burning today

Eflat Bflat F highG

And baby my emotions are too

Eflat Bflat C Bflat C

The cradle of humanity has led us all astray

Gsharp Bflat G

and we're all in this together don't you know

Gharp Bflat

cause our species has nowhere else to go.

Verse II:

Aggression rears its ugly head, retaliation brings further dread

the two are linked by unseen threads that wind back through time

I don't agree with this out-dated trend, nationalism's but an evil friend

Hatred's instilled by invisible lines drawn in our minds

Chorus II:

And the fertile Crescent is haunting us today

And baby our instincts are too

The ghost of humanity is warning us this way

And I think we all should heed it don't you know,

Cause we don't know where else to go.
