I feel that the lyrics in this one are more important than the song itself. The song is about the mankind exterminating itself along with other helpless species. Who says we have the right to take what we want from the planet? Think about it, what can we do to make this planet a little more..peaceful, safe AND green.
I'll say it right away, I'm not pleased with the diztortion on the lead guitar, I will find a more warmer sound for future live performances ;-).
I hope you like it anyways and that you understand the point.
The song is about "God" (whoever you belive in) speaking to a man on earth, trying to make him understand the situation from Gods view.

Lyrics
Take a look, take a look around the world
Tell me what, tell me what do you see
It isnt comfort and joy, so tell me boy, what did you see
Dear Lord, the only thing I see is misery
Just wars and gloom, soon the day of doom, will take our lives
Yeah thats right and it aint my vision of life
Children are, children are starving to death
And what do you do, you stand without a clue and think that Ill undo it
Ref
There is nothing else I can do, I have tried everything but now its up to you
Stand together and unite, booth black and white
The last centuries I have tried just to keep you people alive
Now cant my words of wisdom save you from The Day of Defeat
Stop preying and act now, theres still some hope left, dont cry
Dont cry, dont you dare to cry
There is not much left of what I created
Nows the world just filled with hatred
No place to be brown, no place to settle down and be yourself
The mankind wasnt created by evil
The poverty and wars, dictators and laws werent created at all
Ref
There is nothing else I can do, I have tried everything but now its up to you
Stand together and unite, booth black and white
The last centuries I have tried just to keep you people alive
Now cant my words of wisdom save you from The Day of Defeat
Stop preying and act now, theres still some hope left, dont cry
Dont cry, dont you dare to cry
Johan, you are a special guy!
