Alison Smith - Why Bullets and Bombs?

Brutal taking of life
Understanding cant come from this
Look at the pain
Let the leaders stand and face
Each time troops deployed
There will be no happy end
Something new needs to be tried

Blow up that not understood
Orders just acted on
Maybe we need to say... STOP
Bullets and bombs are not the way
Surley we dont listen to so few

You would think by now
We would have learnt that its wrong
That Bullets and Bombs dont work
Why then bullets and bombs?
