Hey now, all you sinners
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you lovers
Put your lights on, put your lights on
We have to remember that, like Christianity, Islam is a religion of peace. Do we look to the New Testament for our answers ...?
Hey now, all you killers
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you children
Leave your lights on, you better leave your lights on
And we must remember that, like Christianity, Islam is a religion of death. Do we look to the Old Testament for our answers ...?
Cause there's a monster living under my bed
Whispering in my ear
There's an angel, with a hand on my head
She say I've got nothing to fear
As we well know, and is being played out in many ways through many governments and groups, hard-line zealotry, no matter the form, is a dangerous, dangerous game to play. Lives hang in the balance, and recently, too many disruptions in The Force we have seen.
There's a darkness deep in my soul
I still got a purpose to serve
So let your light shine, into my hole
God, don't let me lose my nerve
Lose my nerve
Are we candy asses for wavering? For questioning? I look to all things good and righteous in our world and each and every one came from questioning the presumed assumptions that stood before.
Hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Wo oh hey now, hey now, hey now, hey now
Do "They" all want to kill us? No more than we want to kill them ... What does a Muslim look like? They look like you and me. They look brown, black, Asiatic, Caucasian and everything in-between. In killing "them" we only kill ourselves.
Hey now, all you sinners
Put your lights on, put your lights on
Hey now, all you children
Leave your lights on, you better leave your lights on
As there, the families cry and we, on this side of the planet, try to reconcile and rationalize the introduction of "moderate" and "democratic" governments into the Middle East and Halliburton gets their $900m for "reconstruction" we are forced to try and ask the right questions - even if it gets us on Ashcroft's sh*t list.
Because there's a monster living under my bed
Whispering in my ear
There's an angel, with a hand on my head
She say's I've got nothing to fear
La ill aha ill Allah
We all shine like stars
We all shine like stars
Then we fade away
