theCURE 04:03
theCURE Written and composed by HAYDEN RICHARDS VERSE 1: I often wonder If we know what we're doing When we load our rifles, Do we know what we're doing? Now blood soaks the ground, Where are we now? Will you restore freedom when you detonate it? Or should we consider the lives we decimated? You could drop bombs from a thousand miles Now imagine if you could disarm your missiles? CHORUS: They'll tell you, That you're going off to fight for peace And they'll tell you To ignore the bloodshed and crush your enemies, oh Did they tell you, 'Bout the billions made from hate and war? Let me ask you this... Is love the cure? VERSE 2: You won the mission But at what cost? A little girl buried in rubble Hopes and dreams lost We'll never know her name Was her life in vain? You reap your profits from every rocket fired (Nations on fire) The innocent be damned as long as there's a buyer We should stand up for more than greed Now imagine if just a little love is all we need? CHORUS: They'll tell you, That you're going off to fight for peace And they'll tell you To ignore the bloodshed and crush your enemies, oh Did they tell you, 'Bout the billions made from hate and war? Let me ask you this... Is love the cure? CHORUS #2: They'll tell you, There's no higher honour, protect your country (Like a good soldier) That the innocent lives you ended were necessary, oh Let me tell you, 'Bout the billions dead from mindless war Let me ask you this... Is love the cure? CHOIR SECTION: [Newsreader] The UN's latest human rights report Says Syrian Forces have used chemical weapons at least four times since March. It confirms the Syrian Air Force did use sarin gas in Khan Shaykhun in April. More than 83 people were killed, most of whom were women and children… Cure! La la la la la la... Cure!
