The CD "Perfect Change" by Dakona pretty much got me through the most cynical time of my life. Sometimes when you hurt it helps to know that someone else understands. These are the lyrics for, "In God's Name" which is posted below:
Hear the crack of a bullet down on seventh avenue tonight
Man lies bleeding on the floor
Hear the cry of the cop car as the streets are filled with blue and white
They all rush into the clinic door
And I'm never gonna know how you ever get to sleep at night
And justify the things you do
With your hand on the Bible, you say you killed a killing man
Well mister what does that make you?
And it's all in the name of God
And it's all in the name of God
See the crosses burning, lighting up the southern sky
Feel the hatred in the air
Slip into your white robe, to cover up your blackened heart
You don't become that cross you wear
And it's all in the name of God
And it's all in the name of God
Hear the newsmen talking, but they don't help me understand
No I can't claim to comprehend
See the buildings tumbling, so I drop a knee and say a prayer
For the city that'll never ever sleep again
And it's all in the name of God
And it's all in the name of God
And we all got our ways to justify the things we hate
We all got our ways of throwing the first stone
But if you wanna hate, then please leave God alone

Oh, by the way... this is just an audio file, so when you click play there won't be any video or anything... just the still picture of the most beautiful place in the world... in case you wondered...
PS Since it took me several hours to post this, I now also have a fantastic, completely unrelated quote of the day by Phil, "I'll always remember... what's his name..."
