Sixth Sense Lyrics
Well, I’ve seen the world – through the eyes of TV
I’ve felt and I’ve smelt – hate all around me
And I have heard soldiers – scream in my dreams
I’ve tasted the blood – of that nightmarish scene

And I don’t need a sixth sense to see
That with hate we will never be free
No I don’t need a sixth sense to see
That love is the golden key
Yes love is the key

Well, I have seen traces – of races destroyed
I’ve felt and I’ve smelt – the napalm deployed
And I’ve heard bullets – fly on past my head
I’ve tasted the scene – of fields of the dead

And I don’t need a sixth sense to know
That the blood still continues to flow
No I don’t need a sixth sense to know
That the tears like rivers will grow
Yes like rivers they grow

The hands of freedom are tied
Countries are gliding from side to side
And love and joy must step aside
When two diff’rent worlds collide
Just why does it have to be
That we can’t learn from history
Soldiers hearts are made of steel
But scars of war never will heal

Well, I’ve seen the slow – death of earth’s crust
I’ve felt and I’ve smelt – the nuclear dust
And I’ve heard the cries – of forests a-dying
I’ve tasted the tears – of black clouds a-crying

And I don’t need a sixth sense to see
That humans are this planet’s disease
No I don’t need a sixth sense indeed
To feel that it’s time to heal
Yes it’s time to heal

Well, I have seen creatures – slowly disappear
I’ve felt and I’ve smelt – that deep fear so clear
And I’ve heard the roar – of dark storms a-ragin’
I’ve tasted the cruel – fate we’re are facin’

And I don’t need a sixth sense to know
That flowers in a desert can’t grow
No I don’t need a sixth sense to know
That we’re reaching the end of the show
Yes the end of the show

The pois’nous clouds in the sky
Will continue to cry and cry
As long as we stand aside
And watch our sweet Mother die
I wish I could change what’s wrong
With simple words of a song
But I doubt I’ll reach that day
When real peace comes here to stay
(Yes when peace will come here to stay)
