And baby my emotions are too
My optimism was running high
The ghost of humanity is warning us this way
And baby our instincts are too
'Cause our species has nowhere else to go
And we're all in this together don't you know
And the fertile crescent is haunting us today
Nationalism is an evil friend
The two are linked by unseen threads
Hatred is instilled by invisible lines
And I think that we all should heed it, don't you know?
And I think that we all should heed it, don't you know?
They're blowing it away
And baby our instincts are too
Drawn in our minds
But I couldn't believe it when I heard them say
Retaliation brings further dread
The fertile crescent is haunting us today
That affects me and you
Aggression rears it's ugly head
I don't agree with this outdated trend
The cradle of humanity has led us all astray
And the fertile crescent is burning today
The ghost of humanity is warning us this way
'Cause we got nowhere else to go
That wind back through time
A new world order was on my mind
It's the manifestation of a deeper fight
