[00:14.34]You just sit there in silence whilst the world cries out in vain
[00:19.17]On the television screens and the newspaper headlines
[00:21.98]we read today
[00:23.43]
[00:24.56]There's a war going on in the middle east and the fallout
[00:28.56]affects us all
[00:29.37]
[00:30.36]but nobody out there's prepared to talk
[00:33.30]
[00:38.37]There's a war going on on our own front door
[00:41.32]step with the Jews and Islam-aphoebes
[00:43.96]because every time a bomb
[00:45.96]goes off we get religious probes
[00:49.33]There will always be
[00:50.71]extremists acting in their names of god
[00:53.90]
[00:54.78]But the gods they worship will never hear them call
[00:58.15]
[01:04.58]I could build you a tower
[01:06.52]
[01:07.28]I could set you apart from all
[01:09.90]the wars and the violence towards the pure of heart
[01:15.15]I could build you a tower
[01:18.08]I could build you a tower
[01:20.96]I could build you a tower
[01:24.04]but they'll only burn it down
[01:25.18]
[01:42.43]There's an 8 year old boy in Lebanon
[01:44.43]with a rifle in his hands
[01:46.49]
[01:47.49]his parents betray his innocence
[01:49.93]as he's old enough to be a man
[01:52.24]
[01:52.80]as a teenage boy in Columbine fires automatic rounds
[01:57.24]
[01:58.30]into the hordes of students as bodies hit the ground
[02:02.07]
[02:06.63]The waters rise to enormous heights off
[02:09.57]the coast of North Korea
[02:11.07]
[02:12.01]with all the weapons testing our worlds investing
[02:14.88]in nuclear fear
[02:16.46]
[02:17.46]I'm counting down the days until this earth destroys itself
[02:22.09]
[02:22.97]through our ignorance gluteny and wealth
[02:25.90]
[02:32.83]I could build you a tower
[02:34.59]
[02:35.52]I could set you apart from all
[02:37.39]
[02:38.22]the wars and the violence towards the pure of heart
[02:42.66]
[02:43.67]I could build you a tower
[02:46.47]I could build you a tower
[02:49.29]I could build you a tower
[02:52.22]but they'll only burn it down
[02:54.14]
[03:03.71]I could build you a tower
[03:04.49]
[03:10.86]I could set you apart from all
[03:14.24]the wars and the violence towards the pure of heart
[03:17.99]
[03:41.80]I could build you a tower
[03:44.37]I could build you a tower
[03:47.12]I could build you a tower
[03:49.05]
[03:49.99]but they'll only burn it down
[03:53.24]
[04:12.05]
