there was a young boy so full of hope
who ran around saying he'd change the world
one day, one day, there'll be no more war
one day, one day we'll all be friends
one day, one day, there'll be no more war
one day, one day, (but) maybe not today

there was a boy who'd spread his hope
sharing smiles as far as he could go
one day, one day, this all will end
one day, one day, there'll be no more pain
one day, one day, this all will end
one day, one day, (but) maybe not today

there was a young boy so full of hope
who went off to war and never came home
one day, one day, he might return
one day, one day, we wish him well
one day, one day, he might return
one day, one day, (but) maybe not today
a lullaby for one of my characters
my poor baby Charlie

taking the base that all art is influenced by the social and political environments, this lullaby was written because there was a kid the figurative author knew of that believed in change.  the kid thought he would be the one to stop it.  but when he finally went to war, the encouraging statements halted because that kid was never coming back.
obviously, as is mentioned in the song.

Charlie's country was not in a very good political state, and so there was rise to a group of rebels that slowly grew
maybe this kid went there
maybe he was shot
no one knows, because when it comes to war everything is unpredictable


if you wanna use this or whatever, please ask
I am super proud of this and it'd be a shame if some jerk stole it
be a shame if that jerk got shanked walking home from work, too
but I don't know
crazy things happen
