Lamentations Of WarWe are the ones with death in our eyesTears flood these plains as the reaper reigns. War has a million faces of hate Endless the blood, carnage and rage One last desperate cry, humanity dies In this field of red Countless have fallen, Been slain and betrayed Images burn in my mind everyday. To burn a hero for a piece of land And watch the innocent die For the sake of a plan. This death toll rising I can take no more Agony, torment the horror unfolds A nightmare before us that endlessly grows Boys with a future, men with a home No longer with us their grave is unknown How did this ever begin? Power and greed lead to ultimate sin. I am breaking, my heart racing This soul aching emotions are numb No more can I take, I wish death everyday. I lie waiting For freedom to take me away. Rancid leaders With not one ounce of courage Sending ordinary men To fight for their ambitions. No life is sacred none need be spared The bodies are piled laid naked and bare Those who declare this war Sit in ivory towers Where their sons shall rule I have cried my last My soul now belongs in the past. |
