There is no safeguard from the crosshairs of competing weapons As they race to add more tallies to the death toll Expended youth by command towers their irreplaceable souls Trapped under the crushing weight of human nature Cities and hearts will burn While we bathe in the blood of our children Pyrrhic victories fill chapters of history A festering disease that will never be cured Send the young Send the poor Faceless bodies To the slaughter Will they return at the end Starving families cling to hope To avoid the flames Only to be taken by the smoke Father do you have the answers The best way for your sons to die War games are the final answer Death games for the rally cries Cities and hearts will burn While we bathe in the blood of our children Pyrrhic victories fill chapters of history A festering disease that will never be cured Reaper won't you come to me Harbinger dressed in camouflage Death hides around every corner Bullets and bombs are loyal to no one Aim fire I'll ask but no one answers Aim fire Why must we kill each other Pray to avoid the flame Only to be taken by the smoke Cities and hearts will burn While we bathe in the blood of our children Pyrrhic victories fill chapters of history A festering disease that will never be cured
