Bad Religion Fertile Crescent Lyrics

Transcription by Jody Beaulac.
Lead Rythm 1 (2x):
Come and see the brilliant light
Don't let your emotions mask your sight
It's a manifestation of a deeper fight that affects me and you
My optimism was runnin high
The new world order was on my mind
But I couldn't believe it when I heard them say
They're blowing it away
And the fertile crescent is burning today
And baby my emotions are too
The cradle of humanity has led us all astray
And we're all in this together, don't you know
Cause our species has no where else to go
Aggression rears it's ugly head
Retaliation brings further dread
The two are linked by unseen threads
That wind back through time
I don't agree with this outdated trend
Nationalism is an evil friend
Nut hatred is instilled by invisible lines
Drawn in our minds
And the fertile crescent is haunting us today,
And bay our instincts are too,
The ghost of humanity is warning us this way
And I think that we all should heed it don't you know,
'Cause we've got nowhere else to go
