Child's Play - Mennen

They say he died for a reason

They say he suffered for all of us

They say his life had a meaning

And he lives on in all of us

He lives on

In the heart of the warrior

Hate and rage flowing from his eyes

He’s the straw, the desperate cling to

When all hope’s gone

Where morality dies

In the name of love

He carried his cross up the hill

But his message is fading

It seems never fulfilled

(Child's play)

If someone shed a tear for a missing child

One in a million

That won’t be enough

(Child's play)

If someone says a prayer for you

One of these children

That don’t count at all

With his hand on the bible

He swears to tell the truth

But the answers never will be found

And he will rest on holy ground

In the name of love

He carried his cross up the hill

But his message is fading

It seems never fulfilled

(Child's play)

If someone shed a tear for a missing child

One in a million

That won’t be enough

(Child's play)

If someone says a prayer for you

One of these children

That don’t count at all
