For God's Sake Lyrics

Love
Give me love

Sick of all the noise that we make
The killings, the oil, the guns
Tired of all the news that they make
The famine, the stars, their cars

Children dying, mothers crying
That's the life your money buys
If one asks we'll keep on denying
Media will feed the lines

I won't lie down
I won't shut up
We're crashing down
I can't see you prayin'

For God's sake give me love
And the heavens may come
For God's sake give me love
For we haven't calmed down

Hungry for the things that we miss
The laughter, the wine, the song
We pretend the world is in bliss,

I'm sorry, we got it wrong

I won't back down
I won't shut up
We're crashing down
I can't hear you prayin'

For God's sake give me love
And the heavens may come
For God's sake give me love
For we haven't calmed down

Hey you, open your eyes

For God's sake give me love

Be aware and make a sound
Give your life a different sense
Be awake and make a sound
We might be given one last chance

For God's sake give me love
And the heavens may come
For God's sake give me love
For we haven't calmed down

For God's sake give me love
And the heavens may come
For God's sake give me love
Before I lay myself down
