In the darkness
Lying in wait
A force so strong
Deceit and hate

It flows through the air
Like a ***** stream
Looks for the simple
To their thoughts I'll sing

Through out the bait
Will they bite?
The darkness is patient
It can look like The Light

A force so subtle
Like a passing wind
It starts with a thought
That's how it begins
Then out through the mouth
The venom sets in

O if the simple
Would stop and think
From the ***** water
They would not drink
They would see the disease
And wars that they cause
Before they spoke
they would stop and pause

There is great force
In Love there's no crime
Creating peace
Easy to find
Let what you say
Water the earth
Up from the ground
Flowers give birth
Clean pure water
For all to drink
If only the simple
Would stop and think
