On And On Lyrics

Wake up - all the world is breaking
From the highest point to the deepest low
And I can't stop my hands from shaking
Where we're headed I don't want to go

Stand up - you must say something
We all must try a little more
We can't keep running circles
We can't remain silent behind closed doors
Go ahead and save yourself
Don't expect help from anyone else

And it goes on
All the wars will keep on raging
All the people will keep on praying
For something to change
It goes on
Will we speak with united voices
Will they answer for their choices
While it goes on and on and on and on and on I met an American soldier
Who was ready to die for the cause
Still he asked, "What are we fighting for?
Will someone give me an answer?"
Will he give his life tonight?
Is there any chance we'll be right?

Is there any middle ground
That hasn't been turned to stone?
Will the exiles and refugees of the world
Ever be welcomed back home?

And it goes on
All the bombs will keep on blasting
People following without asking for reasons why
And it goes on
Will our children learn the lesson?
Know the answers and not just guess them
While it goes on and on and on and on and on
