Olivia Newton-John - Silent Ruin lyrics

(Olivia Newton-John)

Wash the blood from my hands

Take the pain from my heart

I just can't understand

What it is that we do

What's the thread running through

The heritage of man

How can I justify to my child what we're doing

When I can't explain it myself

And if I close my eyes to the wild silent ruin

Then I'm just like everyone else

And I cry for their beauty; I cry for their pain

And I cry that my child may not see them again

Will I leave her a legacy she's being denied

Oh I pray that we will when I kiss her goodbye

How can I justify to my child what we're doing

When I can't explain it myself

And if I close my eyes to the wild silent ruin

Then I'm just like everyone else

Oh I dream of a time in the future

When we can renurture the damage we've done

For although there's a dark side to all human nature

Our true selves are born in the sun

Our true selves are born in the sun

Please explain to me what we have done
