Blood on the ocean There's a scar upon the world And the population is falling To the point of no return What will I tell my children What will I tell my God What happened To the world we knew We could not read The writing on the wall Blood upon the ocean Washing red onto the shore Wash my hands in desperation But they're stained for evermore Your cry is growing fainter I strain my ears To hear your song What happened To the world we knew We could not read The writing on the wall There burns a flame, I'll hold it high And shout your name The people turn, A change has just begun What happened To the world we knew We could not read The writing on the wall
