Get down on the floor!" Soon it gets serious, a curfew's declared The city falls silent, there's death in the air Cocking his weapon with shaking fingers Grits his teeth as he's hugging the trigger Young blood rushes, his heart pounds He knows it gets easier the next time around They're just objects and shadows, not women and men Learning to kill is a natural thing [Verse 2] Learning to fear is a matter of habit The more you have done it, the better you're at it News from above reach the street There's no hope of living, the end is so near Tidings of terror, a raven's crow Shutter your windows, lock up your homes We're just a handful, a tiny country Surrounded by evil, they won't let us be They have hate in their hearts and in all that they bring Learning to fear is a natural thing [Verse 3] Cruelty is a matter of habit The more you've seen it, the better you're at it Every boy has a tyrant's desire Hands behind the head, legs spread wide These are times of danger, times of despair No room for compassion, a soldier can't care Our neighbors are vermin, they're used to the blood How can they feel pain when they're living in the mud? Through cruel routine a soldier is born Ignorance soon turns to evil in war Israel's land is for Israel's kin Cruelty comes as a natural thing [Verse 4] Learning to love is a natural thing It will find a way if you just let it in It will be strange at first, but then you'll see it That learning to love is a matter of being Being human is a matter of habit A few baby steps, then you get better at it To be for one minute, just now, just recall The opposite side of the towering walls But our hearts have hardened along with our skin We built a bubble and let no one else in We'll be staring in wonder as the angel falls Then being human will be a matter of course Will be a matter of course Genre Israel Palestine
