When Will It End?
No For An Answer Lyrics

A violent trend of thought,
There's a mindset of violence prevalent in society.

And though we're in control,
Although we have control over our actions, the violent trend still exists.

Our joy is lost,
We've lost our sense of happiness and peace.

We must not become like,
We shouldn't let ourselves become like those who embrace violence.

Those who came here to fight,
Those who promote violence and conflict.

Why should we let our joy,
Why should we allow our sense of happiness and peace to be compromised?

Turn to a force that will destroy?
Why should we allow it to turn into something that causes harm?

When...WILL IT END!?!?! (3X)
When will the cycle of violence come to an end?

When will all the violence end?
When will society no longer embrace violence?

I have a seen a passive stance,
I've observed people being passive and avoiding confrontation.

Turn to pride and then advance,
But sometimes that can lead to a sense of superiority and aggressive behavior.

Into a state of social war,
This can escalate into a situation of social conflict.

Goals of the past, they seem no more,
The original goals and ideals that started the conflict are forgotten or abandoned.

With bridges burned we can't go back,
Once relationships and connections are destroyed, there's no way to repair them.

Unobtrusive days are in the past,
Days of peace and quiet are no longer possible due to conflict.

We've sounded out and so must stay,
We've taken a stance against violence and must continue to do so.

And disregard past violence ways,
We need to let go of the violent tendencies we once had and move forward peacefully.
