lyrics

Thoughts you must collect, we can direct your life my boy
If you choose to serve you will deserve your worldly joy
To teach you how to kill, your social will we must destroy
But it’s only for a bit then you can quit your dark employ

Widows cry and good men die
Still we fight and don’t ask why
Senseless crime with no reason or rhyme
The war song sung as the death tolls climb

Marching through a haze, a distant gaze with tired eyes
Chewing on their fears from all the years of constant lies
Leaders fueled by hate cannot abate the endless cries
Youth with lives delayed are now afraid of their demise

Mothers cry and good men die
Still we fight and don’t ask why
Senseless crime with no reason or rhyme
The war song sung as the death tolls climb

On the evening news, the camera crews shoot grizzly scenes
For the viewers to digest as they rest at TV screens
In between the ads to sell them fads and new blue jeans
No one seems to care, they’re unaware of what it means

Children cry and good men die
Still we fight and don’t ask why
Senseless crime with no reason or rhyme
The war song sung as the death tolls climb
