A granite world of fragile flesh and bone
A planet overcrowded and alone
Round and round we go
Round and round we go

We build our bombs and fend for our own lives
We load our guns and watch our children die
Round and round we go
Round and round we go

What’s the use in choosing sides?
When compassion is our key to survive …
Will we survive?

You think we would’ve learned to love by now
But we’ve killed the ones who tried to teach us how
Round and round we go
Round and round we go

What will it take for all this hate to end?
Within ourselves is where peace must begin

Within ourselves is where peace must begin
