The Wish Songtext
von The Square Egg

Ghetto landscapes means the plan takes
A little more execution
Rising prices, losing lives
It′s got to have a quick solution
Not the placebo that we all know is offered as rhetoric
But real answers to stop the cancers to get ourselves in check

I wish I could hug the world
I wish I could hold back to hurt
I wish I could right what's wrong
I wish I might save the world with this song


City stops, traffic passes
Country streams flow like molasses
Children study do they learn in classes
Apathy it infects the masses
Question that many seem to ask is can it be that we might last this
Collectively it seems our task is to recognize and no longer mask this
Bombs we make them
Lives we take them in the name of God and Nation
Learning to kill the human will
When what we need is to learn patience
We erect prison building
For young men pass time by killing
On the streets we watched them dealing
From the hungry the rich are stealing

I wish I could hug the world
I wish I could hold back to hurt
I wish I could right what′s wrong
I wish I might save the world with this song

I wish I could turn back the hands of times
I wish I could right all man's crimes
I wish I could unite all mankind
I wish I might save the world with this song
