To the outsider it seems that we in Britain live daily under the cloud of terrorism.
That familiarity sometimes makes you think of it as almost normal
then suddenly something will happen

We stand
hang our heads disbelieving then not knowing how could such a thing be wrong we wonder just what they must be thinking to take a life of one so young So tell me when will it be over now
how soon? how far must we go
to prove to you? We wait and we wonder how this happened killing the old
the innocent
the young while sons follow in fathers footsteps not understanding that what they do could somehow be so wrong So tell me when will it be over now
how soon? how far must we go
to prove to you? So we will wait and we ll wonder No regrets
no forgiveness
no compasssion these brave heroes only know to hit and run slowly my sadness turns to rage and we wonder how can these scars ever heal
when all is said and done So tell me when will it be over now
how soon? how many tears must fall to prove to you? please tell me
when will it be over now
how soon? and how far must they go
to prove to you? So we wait and we wonder
