A Life To Call My Own

I believe in suffering
Random acts of violence
And terrorists attacking
And I
I feel we're unprepared
And no one knows what's coming next
But the children shouldn't have to be so scared

Is this what we created
Is this the world we made
When will this all end
When will people change
The one thing that I know
I want a life to call my own

I beleive
In stupid common sense questions
And random urine drug testing
The system's losing grip
Just who are these people we commit
And when the fire starts who will fetch the water
It rises with the suicide
These are your sons and daughters

Is this what we created
Is this the world we made
When will this all end
When will people change
The one thing that I know
I want a life to call my own

I believe in towers falling down
Going to school with the fear of a gunshot sound
And
A riot breaks loose
Everyone runs wild
A mother sits at home watching the televison screen
No one should have to fear for their child

Is this what we created
Is this the world we made
When will this all end
When will people change
The one thing that I know
I want a life to call my own
