Some Silly Endless War

They fuel destruction, they bring us shame Nation against nation, with no end in sight Leaving behind a trail of sorrow and blight

Leaders engage in power-driven fights Sending soldiers to battle under endless nights Families torn apart, lives forever changed As the world watches, bewildered and pained

Some silly endless war, when will it cease? A cycle of violence, offering no peace The cost is too high, in blood and in tears A never-ending cycle of fears

In the name of ideologies and pride Countless lives are lost on every side But what is gained in this tragic affair? Nothing but despair, in the air

It’s time to break free from this vicious chain To seek understanding, to heal the pain Let empathy guide us, compassion unite And together, forge a future that’s bright

For it’s only through peace that we truly win When love triumphs over hate, deep within So let’s put an end to this senseless strife And embrace a world where all can thrive

Some silly endless war, it’s time to say no To find a path where compassion can grow For in unity and harmony we’ll find A world where peace and love forever shine.
