AYREON SINGS OF THE USELESSNESS OF THE COUNTLESS WARS TO COME, AND THE ABSURDITY OF THE FINAL ANNIHILATION BY THE PUSH OF JUST ONE BUTTON BY JUST ONE MAN.
[AYREON:] echoes of a thousand screams smoke, blood and fire a deserted battlefield millions of men will die at one man's desire and the docile mass will yield
all through the ages men will die before their time in an everlasting war as long as man is taught that war is not a crime man will fight for evermore
out of the ashes a war-lord will arise and tyrannize the land his reign of terror will cost many a sacrifice an inferno is at hand
all through the centuries men will be caged in the name of liberty as long as man shall live wars will be waged or will we ever be set free? Set me free!
the road to ruin gets shorter all the time as technology will improve it takes but one man to commit the ultimate crime and make the final move
