Болховитин Александр Павлович The Messenger

Critics are screaming 'til their voices are gone,
The world is frozen on the edge of a pawn
What water to wash in, to make the dew fall?
From clocks that have stopped, answering no one's call?
They've moved from just words to acts of war,
Can't tell anymore who you're sharing with or for?
Go pray at the Wailing Wall, drop to your knees?
Or maybe stop festering, just be at peace?
Just got to keep living, try to be humane!

Someone's got to ring the bell!
See the Greek, he runs to tell!
Is he running from Marathon?
No! A stranger, unknown!
Do we all need to live? Do we all need to give in to war?

The Wailing Wall doesn't help anymore!
Someone's getting shoved, right to the floor!
We better not drown in the tears that we weep!!
The rulers can't decide which promise to keep!!!
Will they share with us, or take it all?
How do you choose, and where do you draw the line on the wall???

Someone's got to ring the bell!
See the Greek, he runs to tell!
He's a true Marathon man!
No! A stranger, no plan!
Do we all need to live? Do we all need to give in to war?
