Before It's Too Late

Everyday is dark
Even when the sun is shining
Everyday is quiet
Even when the world is buzzing

How many days do I have to wait?
For the war to end before it's too late.

Blood is spilled like fresh water
Its smell present everywhere
Children are killed like worthless toys
Their screaming filling my ears

How many days do I have to wait?
For the war to end before it's too late.

I can hear bullets firing
The sound more usual that my heartbeat
They are coming close, I can feel it
I try to hide but the balance is off my feet

How many days do I have to wait?
For the war to end before it's too late.

The fast bullet meets my heart
And I know it's too late now
But before I go, I wish to stay
So I scream with all my energy left

How many days do they have to wait?
For the war to end before it's too late.
