Children of the Devastation

 The children of the war torn,let them have some peace
The joys they'll have inside their hearts,allow them to release 
 All they've known in life is war,death and destruction,at their frontdoor
To survive in their world,you gotta hide or run
 These kids don't know,how to have fun
They don't know how long,their lives will last
 Dodging the murderous,deadly bomb blast
Devastated cities, have crumbled to the ground
 Once standing solid,historical and proud
Having witnessed the death and destruction,that goes on all around
 The heartbreak of their loved ones,that lie dead on the ground
End the fighting and the planting of mines
 You don't have long,say the sands of time
Life is for living,make no mistake
 End all the bloodshed,for goodness sake
