This song is to mark the publishing of the Chilcot enquiry in the UK, which will reveal hopefully who was to blame for our mindless entry into the Iraq war. It is dedicated to all the innocent victims including children of unneccesary violence and war who suffer for the will of the few. It's sentiment is a plea for us to learn from our repeated mistakes. LYRICS: MIDDLE EAST by R.Kielty © Verse 1 What kind of road is this we’re on When all the sanity is gone Retribution holds a gun – to the head of every nation What are we turning into be We’re so blind we cannot see We don’t agree to disagree – no revelation Verse 2 And by the way who made those footprints in the sand Who made the tools to fight your holy war Same stars in the vault of heaven Same fire in the hole of hell Same battering ram that’s breaking down your door Chorus How can we touch – when the hearts of all the innocents Bleed too much Where can we turn – to pay the price of all this difference in return Verse 3 And when the sun no longer rises in the East the number of the beast lies like shrapnel in the sand All the lights go out in the Western World and show me anything in christendom that’ll make you give a damn A prayer to all the angels you soon will be released A song or just a sign that just might soothe A shooting star for all you are’s falling leaf, We’re victims of the things that we might choose Chorus How can we touch - when the hearts of all these innocents bleed too much Where can we turn – to pay the price of all this difference in return How can we touch – when the eyes of all the innocents cry too much When will we learn – that the price of all intolerance is no return Come dare believe in the power – the power and the call Do you believe in the power – when the power of love is all Come down from the highest mountain – come down to the wall We can build up the towers – when the power of love is all How can we touch etc. Same stars in the vault of heaven – same fire in the hole Do you believe in the power – when the power of love is all Come down from the highest mountain Down to the wall
