The world just took another spin in the wrong direction

And there are no words to say
G
How much more can our hearts take?

And the promise that the day is drawing near

You will wipe away every tear
EmG
You will wipe away every tear
Verse 2BmF#m
There will be no more terror, no more riots in the street

No more sickness, no more pain
G
We’re here for now but we won’t stay
