♫Palestine, Oh... Palestine♫

I felt a song in the air around me this morning, and I asked God to please help me write it, a few minutes later it was done. I hope he sends me some more of these. Some things must be said.

Palestine... Oh, Palestine...

I can see your landscape shrinking

Oh! What must The World be thinking?

The moneychangers took your land

and you have nowhere left to stand

Your children starve.

Your women weep

and all the frightened dreams of sheep

have left them turning on the spit

World... you don't know the half of it

Palestine! Oh, Palestine!

you stay inside the shadows

courage calls you to the light

but you're too scared to move now

every shadow turns to night

Now it's just a lighter shade of dark

like you're just strolling in the park

and then the streetlamps all go out

and you can hear the howling start

It won't be long as these things go

that terror of what you don't know

under the bed... down in the sink

it is much closer than you think

yes, the sheep are everywhere

too scared to speak or they don't care

convenience is their conscience now

whatever comfort will allow

until they take it all away

and it will come for you someday

it's already on the way

Palestine! Oh, Palestine!

where monsters dwell the word is out

what made you strong is now in doubt

your selfish ways have done you in

there are some wars you cannot win

When you let Palestine go down

your world went too, without a sound

you let the cowards kill the weak

and now you are the thing they seek

Where have all the heroes gone?

the creeping fear keeps coming on

Palestine's a world away, and

Now what's next? no one can say

yes the sheep are everywhere

too scared to speak or they don't care

convenience is their conscience now

whatever comfort will allow

until they take it all away

and it will come for you someday

it's already on the way

Palestine... Oh, Palestine...

I can see your landscape shrinking

Oh! What must The World be thinking?

The moneychangers took your land

and you have nowhere left to stand

Your children starve.

Your women weep

and all the frightened dreams of sheep

have left them turning on the spit

World... you don't know the half of it

Palestine! Oh, Palestine!

The cities have all turned to shit

the monsters have a taste for it

They buried Palestine today!

They Buried Palestine today!!!

Now, what's next? No one can say!

Now, what's next? No one can say!

Now, what's next? No one can say!
