Testi musica canzoni

( Oklahoma, 1995)


Turned on the T.V. today I see
There once was a family
But now there is no more
In just the flash of an eye
They're dreams all passed them by
And I have to wonder just what for
A sudden rumbling, walls are crumbling
Fear and confusion all around
Mothers crying while babies are dying
Pain and sorrow's what they found

(CHORUS)
How can you live with yourself
Knowing what you've done
I hope you're happy with the fame you've won
How can you live with yourself
How do you sleep at night
Can you really think that you're right

You think your life is spent
And you blame the government
You say they're the root of all your pain
But if your life is poor
You can know for sure
That you're the only one to blame
You think you are right
Simply because you're white
As you preach your hate religion loud
But the book you claim to use
Was written for the King of Jews
And I don't think He's too proud

CHORUS

I'll say a prayer tonight
In hopes that you might see I'm right
And also see how you've been so wrong
But that won't change the fact
You just can't take it back
The damage is done, the pain's too strong
Maybe God could forgive
But now those families must live
Without the lives that you stole
Just be glad I'm not the one
To punish you for what you've done
And may God have mercy on your soul

CHORUS
