marieke liebe - what are you praying for? lyrics

[verse 1]
there’s a seven year old boy with a line straight down his brow
as shallow as his mother’s body lays beneath the ground
he walks on blistered feet, with a basket in his hand
selling loaves of bread all day til he’s too sore to stand
and i’ve heard him called an animal
i’ve heard him call “collateral”
i’ve heard them say that he’s the one to blame
but when it’s time for him to sleep
and they bomb the schoolyard down the street
his little sister calls him by his name

[chorus]
did you talk to god before you waged a holy war?
cause he cares not who you’re praying to, but what you’re praying for
what are you praying for?

[verse 2]
is it for the rapture?
is it for the oil?
did somebody tell you that your life was worth much more?
haven’t i seen this before?
you say, “this has to happen”
that “there’s no better way”
well if you can’t find one, best of luck on judgement day
good luck on judgement day
it should be unilateral
but you think that it’s “radical” to think it’s bad to blow up little kids
but suffering is laughable when you’re counting up the capital
and your own babies get to keep their limbs
[chorus]
did you talk to god before you waged a holy war?
cause he cares not who you’re praying to, but what you’re praying for
what are you praying for?

[post+chorus]
each day they k!ll a baby that weighs less than a gun
i’m praying that tomorrow there won’t be another one
not another one, oh not another one
