Saw a documentary about the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster today, and came up with this:
There's a person waiting for you to come back home
and sleep by her side
She waits for a future with you and her
and maybe an innocent child
You could play all day
and put him on your back
You could see the smile on his face
and spend the rest of your life like that
Do you really wanna give that away?
Do you really wanna give them away?
Or are you waiting for the world to say
Please don't kill me for you ego
I don't deserve to die right now
Remember the games you used to play as a kid?
The ones with Superman and the bad guys
You've grown up now and there's no Superman
I'm not so sure about the bad guys
Do you know how many kids are playing
that very game right now?
Do you know how many mothers are praying
for their safety right now?
Do you really wanna take that away?
Do you have any right of playing with their happiness this way?
Or are you waiting for the world to say
Please don't kill me for your ego
I don't deserve to die right now
I'm a man, I'm a common man
A faceless man, an innocent man
I'm walking on the street
Following my daily routine
Can you give me a reason
for killing me slowly?
For killing my parents, my wife, my kids
my friends and my family?
I know you can't
I know you can't
I know you can't
Coz you're the same as me
Please don't kill me for your ego
I don't deserve to die right now
