Let Love Begin Again

Prithvi Datta

Lyric
Stop the killing. Stop the pain
Open your hearts, Let love begin again

Violence in the movies
Violence on TV

Violence in the home
Between you and me

Wake up you sleeping people
Wipe the dust from your eyes

Wake up your neighbors
Can’t you hear the anguished cries?

Don’t listen to the commands
That rage in your head

Open your hearts take a stand
Before all of love is dead
