Well you know i've done some travelling
Been around some years
The world is a caisson
Full of hurt and full of tears
Everyone so unkind
Shot for little children
And a bullet for the blind
Well, he tell me that the people
Do the best for most
Maybe i am just unlucky
Never met no holy host
To blood still run like vine
Shot for little children
And a bullet for the blind
On this lonely road
There's a million broken hearts
You know you never make it
It will tear you well apart
I'm soldier in the dust
On shot whithout a meal
Now raise you hands to heaven
For the love you never feel
And there's no way to leave
You'll never find that code
Some people carry nothing
Others got a heavy load
Tell me why you never reach the other side
Shot for little children
And a bullet for the blind
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why you never reach the other side
Shot for little children
Shot for little children
Shot for little children
And a bullet for the blind
